Hey, I'm Will. Pull up a chair.
This is my portfolio, set on a screened-in porch on the South Carolina coast after dark: laptop open, coffee on, cat asleep on the rail.
Everything on the porch is clickable. Hover over the scene (or tap on a phone) to find my projects, background and how to reach me, or jump straight in from the list.

William Columbia
Computer Science grad from the University of South Carolina, now an IT Technician at Wild Dunes Resort in Charleston: networks, firewalls, Windows and Linux.
I still write code on the side. Backend by habit (C++, Python, Java, Node.js, Django) and working my way toward full stack.

## Determined
As a kid I taught myself to jump rope. That same stubbornness is how I work: keep at it until it clicks.
## Team-first
Years of competitive sports made me a leader who brings teammates along and works it out together, not one who hands out orders.
## Proof
As assistant head coach at Riverside High (2024–2025), I helped the team to its 5th straight 5A state championship. As a CS teacher assistant at USC (2022–2024), I helped raise department pass rates by 20%.
