PROFILE

Nicholas Schexnayder

Over a two-month period, contributed to the JoyOfCodingPDX/KatasSummer2025 repository by developing and refining core features in Java, focusing on command line interface reliability and robust algorithm implementation. Delivered a leap year calculator with comprehensive CLI integration and extensive unit testing, and enhanced the RPN calculator through a switch-based evaluation approach. Emphasized error handling and cross-platform compatibility while increasing test coverage and integration testing to improve build confidence. Additionally, standardized Maven project metadata, including artifact naming and project identification in pom.xml, to support reproducible builds and streamlined CI/CD processes. Work demonstrated attention to maintainability, configuration, and repository management.
