About Me

Hi there! I'm a senior at Monta Vista High School who's interested in pursuing an education in cognitive science. Aside from my formal education, I'm an avid web developer who enjoys designing sites and games- you can see some of my projects below. I try to keep things as made-from-scratch as possible- it's more fun that way :)


I'm also frequently involved in local hackathons and coding events- I've been to 8, created award-winning projects at 4, and am currently organizing my own hackathon. In my adventures, I've also cofounded Bananium Labs, a nonprofit that provides support to help fellow aspiring student developers get started with their own projects.


Although my main focus is web development with HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and TypeScript, I've worked with C# (mostly with Unity) and dabbled in some machine learning with Python (something I hope to focus on more during college). If I'm not coding, I like to read science fiction novels, rice Linux, and play golf.

Climate.js

Climate.js takes raw weather data and offers a variety of customizable color schemes and visualizers to reflect the current weather. Add extra flair to location-based webapps, or perhaps give a homey feel with weather from your hometown- anything to help make your site more responsive :)


AtomBlast

AtomBlast is an online multiplayer arena game set at the atomic level. You control your own atom and fight with your team against other players to gain the most points. Collect atoms to craft into compounds with the click of a button- each compound has unique qualities that can help you attack, defend, and gain buffs! Strategically minded maps, weaponry, team play, and game modes only add to the fuel!

AtomBlast is a project created in collaboration with BananiumLabs.


AegisVR

Aegis is an interactive virtual reality self-defense simulation, focused on educating its users on how to deal with dangerous situations involving another person. We wanted to spread awareness about self defense and educate people on techniques so they would have a better chance of escape should they ever end up in such a situation. In the future, we'd like to add more scenarios and refine the animations to give a smoother learning experience.

Aegis was created as a part of BaseHacks 3.


AudiSea

AudiSea is an ocean whose waves sync up to the beats of whatever music is playing, letting the user sea the music they're listening to. It also has fish and dolphins that appear periodically in sync with the music. We also added voice recognition to allow the user to play their music hands-free by integrating our app with Spotify.

AudiSea was awarded 4th Place Overall at MenloHacks III.


CarrotCane

CarrotCane is a DIY cane attachment to assist the blind and visually impaired. Features include: automatic detection of nearby objects with audible alarm and feedback when approaching too quickly, ability to attach a smartphone to provide live GPS tracking and video feed, and online supervisor console to give voice directions and monitor video feed for the caneholder.

Awarded 1st Place Overall at TinoHacks II, April 21-22 2018
