01 About

I like figuring out how things work, then building something better.

I'm a Computer Science student at Rutgers University-New Brunswick (B.S., 2028). I focus on building software that solves real problems: cleaning up messy data, automating repetitive work, and turning raw numbers into dashboards people can actually use.

I've shipped features on a production analytics dashboard, prototyped AI-assisted tooling with the OpenAI API, and built side projects across Python, Java, JavaScript, and C#. I care about writing clean code and clear documentation.

Outside of class, I'm usually building something small and practical, or taking something apart to figure out how it works.

    CCS Materials Inc. · Edison, NJ

    • Monitored daily inbound/outbound shipment data against system records to catch discrepancies before they hit fulfillment.
    • Digitized paper-based warehouse logs into internal tracking systems, cutting manual lookup time and making records searchable across the team.
    • Built weekly Excel reports with charts that gave supervisors a quick read on inventory trends and recurring delay patterns.

CamHeart

Live demo

A webcam HUD that estimates heart rate, breathing rate, and a stress proxy in real time using rPPG: tiny per-frame shifts in skin color from each heartbeat, recovered through a POS, bandpass, and FFT pipeline. Runs fully in-browser, so no video ever leaves your machine.

InvTrendDB

Live demo

Interactive inventory analytics dashboard with automated data cleaning, weekly trend charts, and Z-score anomaly detection (global & per-SKU modes) for spotting unusual quantities and delays.
