About Crystal...

Hi, I'm Crystal Parker, a recent graduate with a Bachelor's in Computer Science with Honours and a minor in Biology from Dalhousie University (May 2024). My honors project, guided by Professor Nur Zincir-Heywood, explored the fascinating intersection of Mobile Gaming and Security. In May 2024, I also completed the ICTC Cybersecurity Training and Work Integrated Learning program, further enhancing my expertise.

Currently, I work for the web3 company Koii Network, where I continue to expand my skills and contribute to innovative projects. My technical toolkit includes JavaScript, HTML5, React, NodeJS, MongoDB, SQL, Python, C#, Docker, AWS, Oracle, and more.

I've honed my HTML5 skills by participating in JS13kgames, developing multiple HTML5 games, and completing websites using Flask and Django frameworks. Recently, I collaborated on a 3D game using C#, Blender, and Unity, and worked with a senior web developer on an HTML5 JavaScript game integrated with the NEAR protocol.

Beyond coding, I have a variety of interests. I built my own skin-on-frame canoe with my father, enjoy hiking and camping with my vintage trailer, and love skateboarding. I also have an antique car, a 1953 Hudson Jet, as a hobby. Additionally, I'm an artist, having done portrait commissions and had paintings exhibited in a gallery.

Let's connect and create something amazing together!
