Projects

  • SQLocal

    This is a TypeScript library that I created to make it easy to use SQLite in the browser for local-first apps.

  • Mobile Gaming Website - Pixel Crux

    This is a website that I started early on so I could experiment with web technologies while building something people can use. Very quickly, though, the site became rather popular in the community around the games it is a fan site for and began generating ad revenue. My favorite tool I have made on the site is one where users can make and share maps for one of the games. It uses HTML Canvas, Vue, and Firebase to run the editor right in the browser.

    This is a website that I started early on so I could experiment with web technologies while building something people can use. Very quickly, though, the site became rather popular in the community around the games it is a fan site for and began generating ad revenue. My favorite tool I have made on the site is one where users can make and share maps for one of the games. It uses HTML Canvas, Vue, and Firebase to run the editor right in the browser. Working on this site over the years has taught me a lot about building web interfaces and integrating various technologies to build an experience that people enjoy using.

  • Chess UI

    -

    This is an implementation of a fully playable Chess game UI that I built with React Hooks.

  • OpenRGB Homebridge Plugin

    -

    This is a plugin I built for Homebridge that allows one to control the RGB lighting of PC components and peripherals with the HomeKit smart home ecosystem. It is written in TypeScript.

  • Citation Generator Hybrid App - Excitation

    -

    This is a hybrid app I built using the Ionic framework, Vue.js, and an Express.js backend. It can run as an Android app, iOS app, or a web app, and it helps users generate and save citations for papers, articles, and other academic documents. The app adapts to the platform it is used on with responsive design, light and dark modes, and operating system-aware component designs.

  • Griffin Martial Arts Center Website

    -

    GMAC wanted a website that they could use to advertise their classes, with photos from the classes and a branded design. They also needed to be able to post announcements, new photos, and other information to it themselves. To build griffindojo.com, I used the Nuxt framework. The site is statically hosted, but it is automatically redeployed whenever the GMAC owners edit the content through the CMS I set up for the site.

  • Beyond Basics Medical Billing Service Website

    -

    The manager of Beyond Basics was looking to have a new website built to promote their services and give prospective clients some basic information and a contact point for the business. I built beyondbasicsmbs.com using the Vue framework, and the contact form is powered by a Node.js serverless cloud function.

  • Cyber Knights Ethical Hacking Club

    Team Captain

    -

    During my second semester of college, I joined the Cyber Knights and was introduced to the world of ethical hacking which is all about figuring out how various types of technology work, how to make optimal use of them, and how to protect them from cyberattacks. The cybersecurity side of things that we dealt with allowed me to learn many new concepts, and I was also able to hone new programming skills and apply them in real-world situations.

The cybersecurity side of things that we dealt with allowed me to learn many new concepts, and I was also able to hone new programming skills and apply them in real-world situations. I competed in several competitions as a Cyber Knight, including CTF and Red v. Blue Team competitions. In Spring 2019, I placed in the top 1% of the National Cyber League competition.
