Hello world, I’m Rylan

I’m a web developer that is passionate about programming, art, and coffee. This site represents a small selection of my personal and professional work. Feel free to connect on LinkedIn for service inquiries or just to chat!

I am a software developer by trade and I specialize in web development. Aside from rschubkegel.com, I’ve collected some of the other projects I’ve worked on.

I have become very proficient with React Native by working on the BrokerBay mobile app as a contractor through Silverpine. I have spearheaded several initiatives to improve the app, including:

• Speeding up average launch time by over 50% by refactoring async logic
• Optimizing TTI metrics by implementing skeleton loader components
• Adding frontend data caching using Tanstack Query

I’ve taught some programming classes which has been a great way to practice my communications skills and review fundamental programming concepts.

Most recently I taught a high school elective at Hill Creek Christian School on Python Programming and Computer Science. I designed the entire curriculum from the ground up with the goal of developing students’ high-level understanding and appreciation of digital technologies. All of the curriculum resources were compiled in a website built specifically for the course. You can check it out at hcc.rschubkegel.com.

I was also an online instructor at Coding with Kids for a summer where I taught camps and after-school classes in Python, C#, and Scratch.

I don’t usually touch hardware with a ten foot pole, but I worked on a couple of projects in school that made me feel like a “real” engineer.

My interest in video games inspired me to study computer science in college. Game development remains one of my favorite hobbies since it combines my interest in software development, visual art, music production, and psychology.

My longest-standing hobby is visual art. This is a small collection of my paintings, digital designs, and animations.

I love listening to and producing electronic music. I’ve composed hundreds of songs and discovered my own unique sound.
