# about

I'm a Computer Engineering student who likes building things that actually run — from distributed IoT platforms on bare-metal ESP32s to full-stack web apps used by real organizations. I care about clean architecture, reliability, and shipping.

# experience

Technical Team Lead

Jan 2026 – Apr 2026

Queen's University · Client: ElderDog Canada

  • Led a 4-person engineering team through a 4-month Agile project, delivering a production-ready volunteer management platform; served as primary technical liaison across sprint planning, integration, and client feedback.
  • Built full-stack functionality with React, Next.js, Node.js, and SQL — onboarding, scheduling, task assignment, and admin workflows for 40+ regional chapters.
  • Engineered RESTful APIs and relational database features, replacing manual coordination with a centralized web platform.

Software Developer

Aug 2024 – Jul 2025

Innostation

  • Collaborated with a 5-person team to build a full-stack student skill-sharing platform using Next.js, TypeScript, and MySQL.
  • Implemented user authentication, relational schema components, and responsive frontends, translating product requirements into production features.
  • Developed backend functionality and integrated it with persistent storage; participated in testing, debugging, and Git-based collaboration.

NetSentry

2026

Distributed IoT Home Monitoring Platform

Dual ESP32-WROVER camera nodes on FreeRTOS sustaining 99.7% uptime over 6+ weeks, handling telemetry, MQTT, and image capture concurrently. FastAPI + JWT + TimescaleDB backend ingesting 10,000+ readings, with a React dashboard for sub-second live telemetry. Automated rogue-device detection scanned a 254-host subnet every 5 min, cutting anomaly-to-visual-confirmation to under 15s. Dockerized with GitHub Actions CI.

Aggregated Data Network

2026

Real-time Wireless Sensor Network

Three distributed Arduino Uno R3 sensor nodes and a base station over HC-12 433 MHz radios, sustaining 150–200 μs packet latency under burst traffic with zero loss. Built a ring-buffer queue and direct-mapped hash table for efficient packet processing and duplicate detection, plus rolling-average anomaly detection catching 100% of injected faults.

Discord AI Chatbot

2025

Movie Recommendation Bot

A Discord bot that gives personalized movie recommendations two ways: a collaborative-filtering model (SVD trained on the MovieLens 100k dataset) and OpenAI-generated suggestions and synopses based on a user's ratings. Users register, rate films, and get AI-powered picks or natural-language movie info.

Smart Task Manager

2025

Focus-Blocking Chrome Extension

A Manifest V3 Chrome extension that keeps you focused by blocking distracting sites (Facebook, Instagram, YouTube) during scheduled task windows. It dynamically enables network-request rules that redirect blocked sites while a task is active and incomplete.
