The Pain

4 years ago, life changed gradually from everything going dandy to everything turning into nightmare. Slowly, but surely. College began. I entered the University of Connecticut and subsequently enrolled in their Computer Science program in the School of Engineering.

The Gain

4 years later I can safely say: what an expensive (and painful) mistake.

No, Really

I was somehow able to keep doing what I love without dropping out of college. The last few semesters were a very particular kind of hell, and the only way I ended up graduating was support from others, holla…

Foreshadowing

Now that it is all behind me, I can finally afford to have a blog to share useful snippets of code that will hopefully be indexed by Google, so that I can help others out there facing the same [technical] trouble I am.

Most notably - issues and ProTips (R) having to do with any of the following:

  • Spree eCommerce
  • Rails and/or eCommerce, in general
  • Ruby and/or web development, even more general-er
  • Occasional JavaScript, probably jQuery
  • UX
  • Conversion tracking and improvement
  • Performance

And I really am hoping to start expanding my competency as a web developer, so lets wait and see if that list above grows any.
