Picture of Me

I aspire to work with innovative and talented individuals to develop impactful solutions to real-world problems. As a motivated and fast learner, I can provide value to any team through my proclivity to rapidly adapt to new technologies and environments.

With my continually improving technical skills and my proactive approach to problem-solving, I am confident in my ability to contribute to complex and meaningful projects.

Beyond coding and engineering, I am an avid chess, basketball, and guitar player, who loves building a sense of community everywhere I go.

My Projects

Algorithms Visualizer

A web app where users have the option to explore and visualize pathfinding algorithms like DFS and BFS or sorting algorithms like bubble sort and selection sort. This project was inspired by Clement Mihailescu's "The Projects that got me into Google" video on Youtube.

Swift Notes

A Chrome extension for easy access note-taking coupled with rich text-editing and export capabilities, continuously improved based on user feedback from the Chrome Web Store.

Stock Trading Strategy Engine

Built a trading engine featuring real-time candlestick charts, customizable strategies, and 84% accurate trading signals with low latency SMS alerts, tested on 10,000+ data points across various timeframes.

YouTube Comment Sentiment Analyzer

A web app that reads through YouTube comments and uses Natural Language Processing (NLP) to determine their sentiments, gaining insights into viewer opinions and preferences.

Airbnb Clone

A server-side rendered (SRR) web app that emulates Airbnb’s functionality, complete with a content management system (CMS) using Sanity.io.

Computer Vision Object Identifier App

A web app that employs TensorFlow machine learning models to detect and label objects captured by the user’s webcam (e.g., cellphones, water bottles, and chairs) in real-time.

Dream Journal

A full-stack MERN web app that allows users to generate AI images from textual descriptions while fostering a sense of community with the implementation of an interactive page for content sharing.

Sign Language Translation Gloves

A pair of wearable technology that processes the user's finger positions to translate sign language into English. My team of 3 was recognised as Global Finalists in the Uber Global Hackathon for our work. My main contribution was building and training the machine learning model for accurate translation using Tensorflow.
