Featured · Application
REZ
Problem
Daily calorie tracking becomes tedious when every entry requires searching, repeated form input, or too many screens.
My contribution
Designed and built the application experience, including quick-add calories, reusable preset meals, API integration, and the supporting full-stack workflow.
Engineering decision
Used Electron and Vite for a focused desktop experience, with Express and GraphQL separating the interface from nutrition data and application logic.
Outcome
Created a working nutrition product centered on faster repeat logging and a clearer view of progress toward daily goals.
Website · DSA & practice
Learning Hub
Problem
Algorithm notes, practice problems, and progress often live across disconnected tools, making consistent study harder to maintain.
My contribution
Built the learning interface, problem-tracking experience, and supporting API flow for organizing data-structure and algorithm practice.
Engineering decision
Used a React interface with a Node and Express service layer, keeping learning content and progress data separate from presentation.
Outcome
Combined reference material and LeetCode-style progress tracking into a single repeatable study workflow.
Website · Social
Better-PSN
Problem
PlayStation’s existing experience does not make friends’ live activity and profile information easy to scan in one place.
My contribution
Built the responsive React interface and backend integration for authentication, friend status, current-game, and profile-level data.
Engineering decision
Placed third-party requests behind an Express REST layer and used PostgreSQL for application data instead of coupling the client directly to external services.
Outcome
Produced a focused proof of concept that turns scattered PSN activity into a scannable social dashboard.
Testimonials
