This website was created from scratch by me. It was designed to be simple, straightforward, and easy to update. I'm currently in the process of converting all css in here to tailwind. Hope you liked it!

Fynd offers a platform for users to discover activities and events in Philadelphia. In my role, I transitioned our app's design and functionality into a responsive website. This includes implementing JWT tokens for login/signup functionality, data encryption, a headless CMS for the blog that enables non-technical team members to update content and manage SEO, and much more!

Call of Duty: Warzone Bot

Call of Duty: Warzone Bot image

Frustrated by hackers ruining my gameplay, I built a bot that automatically analyzes my death in-game, identifies the killer's username, and scrapes their stats from cod.tracker.gg. By comparing their Kill/Death ratio to a normal range, it flags potential cheaters for reporting. This clever tool, now with a user-friendly interface, even gained over 100 upvotes on Reddit!

Finance Discord Bots

Built responsive Discord bots that allowed investing groups on Discord to pull stock information at their command, save trading information into databases, make watch lists, and more with a simple message. These bots have allowed me to work with and learn more about MongoDB, Alpha Vantage API, and Yahoo Finance API.

Apple Watch App - Pace Timer

Although I had no experience with Swift, I challenged myself by making my first Apple Watch App. I was thinking about how I can use my Apple Watch to help better pace my track races. Then it hit me, what if I had a simple app that would vibrate according to set intervals I picked? If I wanted to run a 2:00 800m race, I would have the app vibrate on my wrist every 200m or 30s. This way, if the watch vibrated before the 200m markers that would indicate I was behind pace and need to pick up my speed, if it did the opposite and vibrated after the 200m markers on the track then that would indicate I was faster than my desired pace! I took my ideas, borrowed a MacBook Air from my college and brought it to life in 2 days!
