Projects 💻
Bullet Journal
Developed a bullet journal in a agile software engineering environment. As part of the front end team, I worked on transitioning the mockup into html and css pages. Worked with the backed to make queries to a MongoDB database to store and retrieve notes and tasked created by the user.
Browser Permissions Research
Completed a year long research program where I researched ways to record browser permissions (i.e. camera, location, notification). By modifying chromium, my team and I were able to successfully record permissions and scanned over a half a million sites on the Amazon Top One Million sites. And under the advise of professors and graduate students we were able to analyze the data to discover trends on how sites are requesting their permissions.
Swift/SwiftUI Courses
Developed multiple apps with XCode including a Set Card game and a simple drawing app following a course provided by Stanford University. Learned the fundamentals of Swift and SwiftUI by exploring many common Views along with their use cases. Designed elegant UI’s with animations and optimized apps for multiple devices and screen sizes.
Web Development Courses
Built a strong foundation with coding with HTML, CSS and JavaScript using courses from OneMonth.com. Created a dozen websites that each focused on multiple important elements of web development and real-world examples such as mockup Blogs and Search Engines. Incorporated API’s from SoundCloud and GIPHY using JavaScript . Acquired usefully debugging techniques such as efficiently traversing through the documentation to find a solution.
Algo X
Created in Unity, Algo X was created to help new programmers visualize sorting algorithms in a smaller set. The use has the control to choose what instruction to do next, with alerts when a wrong instruction is executed for the algorithm. It provides a much more tactile experience then just a simple visualizer to better understand the underlying code.

Acessibility Video Game Controller
Created during SEI, my team's project was to develop a prototype glove that can act as a video game controller for anyone with a disability. The controller only requires slight movement in that hand, each finger is assigned a color which corresponds to a keypress. A color sensor reads located in an Arduino reads a finger and emulates the corresponding keypress on a computer.
Line Following Robot
Built and programmed a line following robot, using photoresistors and an arduino to control it, using PID to control the turn speeds.
