Minecraft Note Block Song
JMU Fight Song
As a fun side project, I recreated the JMU Fight Song using note blocks in Minecraft! I decided to do this project because I love music and this game. To get it right, I listened to the song hundreds of times, figuring out the notes and rhythms by ear. I might be grown now, but I still find Minecraft cool. Along the way, I also got to use redstone mechanics, which reminded me of concepts in computer science and circuits.

Steve’s Lava Chicken
I also built the iconic “Steve’s Lava Chicken” song in Minecraft using note blocks. This project was just something I did in my free time. I really liked figuring out how to make the rhythms sound right in the game. It was a challenge, but my experience with music made it really fun. Minecraft continues to be one of my favorite games, and I’m glad I took the time to complete this.
Minecraft Build
The Hills Southview
I built The Hills Southview, an apartment complex in Harrisonburg, inside Minecraft! I love building real-life places in the game. This was one of the larger builds I’ve created, and I’m really proud of how it turned out. I even created my own room inside the apartment to make it feel more like real life. I also used plugins that allowed me to control every part of armor stands, which let me add a lot of extra details. I was able to recreate my real-life drumset with the extra control from the plugins.
