About Me

I am a Computer Science Specialist and Statistics Major at the University of Toronto , focused on developing full-stack systems that simplify complex operations into efficient, scalable solutions. With experience in React, TypeScript, Flask, and PostgreSQL, I build production-ready applications that automate workflows and handle real business data, not just academic projects.
I am driven to create software that operates with clarity and precision-quietly improving reliability and productivity.

The Passkey Toolkit (BYOB SDK v1)

Passkey based npm package | TypeScript, WebAuthn

○ An npm package that helps developers add passkey (WebAuthn) registration/authentication to their own applications, accelerating passwordless auth flow development.

○ Includes typed helpers and documentation for challenge/verification flows; framework-agnostic and compatible with any backend implementation.

○ Roadmap in progress for a hosted (Cloud) version (API keys per project, service-hosted passkey auth, Postgres-backed web app with payments)

AI & Computer Vision for Chess

Chessboard detection and piece classification with AI and computer vision | Python - OpenCV, Tensorflow AI Image Classification

○ Performs board detection + segmentation (contours/lines → OpenCV) to produce 8x8 grid pieces.

○ A piece classifier (CNN) classifies pieces, to then convert to FEN for use in engines/programs.

○ Established detection and recognition pipeline, achieving seamless communication between computer vision and Tensorflow CNN.

Calorimetry Lab Simulator

A calorimetry lab simulation for use in academia | Java - Swing, FlatLaf, AWT

○ Applied object-oriented programming principles in Java to structure the simulator, creating modular classes for different fuels, calculations, and UI components, enhancing code readability, maintainability, and scalability.

○ Implemented a drag-and-drop interface and randomized experimental data to simulate realistic lab conditions, providing users with an engaging and educational experience.

○ Engineered detailed calculations for enthalpy change based on user input, dynamically generating results for temperature change, mass loss, and specific heat capacity to reinforce learning.
