Inspired by the likes of Dutch Blitz and Nerts. Plays 2-6 people. When a user first loads the website they are put in a private lobby with a unique invite link. Along the way, my approach was to find the lightest weight solution for each problem. This led me to build a completely serverless application using Firebase's Realtime Database and Netlify Functions.

Jan 2024

I decided to redo my website and get familiar with Next.js along the way. I learned about app vs pages directory structures and client vs server side components. Also, Tailwind is pretty cool.

March 2023

Designed, developed, and presented our iPad app prototype within a 24-hour time frame for Uncommon Hacks 2023. The original idea was to create a productivity app that enabled rapid ideation with voice commands as input. We eventually pivoted and decided to lean into the AI art generation using DALL-E 2. It turned out to be a lot of fun to play around with.

Canvas Plus Plus ->

January - May 2023

Final project for Software Engineering class. Practiced agile, scrum, and XP principles within a team of 6. Our goal was to rebuild Canvas with additional features and better UX. I setup dev environments for teammates by configuring Django-MySQL integration with Docker and assumed additional role as product owner.
