HyperLocal is a Rails app connecting people with local volunteer opportunities. I based my app on the idea that, in order to make a large impact -- whether you care deeply about climate change, women's issues, or health care access -- you can start small.

For HyperLocal, I've done the following:

• built two different interfaces, one for volunteers and one for organizations
• constructed complex database relationships with PostgreSQL
• incorporated the Google Maps API
• enhanced the user experience on the front-end with the Foundation framework and the Animate.css library
