Empowering Accessibility through Technology and Innovation

Welcome to my corner of the web! I'm Cody Hurst, a technology enthusiast specializing in Python development, music production, and crypto trading. With a strong background in network systems and accessibility technology, I've gained experience working in education, developing assistive tools, and producing innovative projects. Whether it's simplifying tech for the visually impaired or crafting immersive audio experiences, my goal is to make the digital world more accessible and exciting for everyone. Let's connect and create something remarkable together!

Education and Skills

Starting with a half-day technical program for computer networking in my junior and senior years of high school at Eastern Center for Arts and Technology (2007-2009), I moved to southern Maine where I attended Southern Maine Community College (2010-2012). After moving to Oregon in 2012 I then enrolled and attended LinnBenton Community College where I continued my general studies from 2013-2015 and then eventually finishing my degree from 2018-2020 when I graduated with my general associates and a network systems degree. During this time I have accumulated the following skills and knowledge:

  • Cryptocurrency investing: Two years of research of how crypto markets operate and a rock solid understanding of what constitutes a good crypto project. This has been my number one success

  • AI: 1.5 years interacting with various AI models to extract the best results to increase workflow, productivity and quality of output.
  • Python Development: 1.5 years experience learning Python developing a multi-player online game client and server. I have a good understanding of classes, variables, data structures and modularization. I am continuing to expand my knowledge and skills
  • Accessibility Assessments and Technology: 4.5 years experience working in the accessibility and accommodations field tutoring students one on one and producing accessible materials in Braille and electronically. Being blind myself I use a screen reader on a daily basis and I have a proficient knowledge of Duxbury Translater.
  • Music Production
  • Network Systems and General Knowledge: Although now expired, I held my Comp Tia A+ and Network Plus certifications as well as my Cisco CCENT. My knowledge of computers and technology stretches back to the early 2000's and can generally solve most problems< both hardware and software./li>

Crypto markets are pumping and I'm doing really well. Anyone still on the fence should definitely come through to the discord. Use the url in the banner to come through, it never expires.

AI has been a fascinating thing to play with. From real-time voice conversion to AI music generation using platforms like Suno and now Udio and Eleven Labs<, I really think this will change the game for the forseeable future. I'm really excited but I also know there's a lot of controversy surrounding AI music but just like producers using samples back in the 90's, this issue will soon fade given time. If you haven't heard the few songs I've made with Suno posted to my Youtube channel, you should definitely check them out.

I'm working on more content for my blog, so stay tuned for updates there.
