Dinomite Designs is a Full Stack project where my team redesigned and optimized a retail website's product portal including details, Q&A, reviews and recommendations. I leveraged React context for simplified state management and component architecture. On the backend, I enhanced performance through SQL and JavaScript query optimizations, reducing HTTP durations by 25%. I implemented load balancing across multiple AWS EC2 instances with NGINX to achieve 12ms response time per query at 1000rps throughput with 0% errors. This project exemplifies not only my frontend UX skills, but also my performance-focused approach to the backend, applying data caching, query optimizations, cloud scaling and load testing to significantly improve customer experience.

Listening Roulette is a social music app enabling friends to listen to music together while chatting in real-time. I integrated an OpenAI-powered chatbot to provide background on artists, creating a more educational music experience. It was built with Firebase for authentication and scalability, and Styled Components for a reusable UI component library. The app uniquely combines real-time synchronization, AI enrichment, and reusable architectures to create an engaging way to share music.

The Ranked Choice Voting Calculator is a single page web application designed to facilitate the tally of a ranked choice vote involving 3-5 candidates and up to 20 voters. I originally came up with this idea to solve a problem. My friends and I have a music listening group where we use ranked-choice voting to decide what album we will listen to together. I chose Svelte as the framework because of its small bundle size and fast load times. I used Vite as the bundler because of its speed and ease of use. I also used Tailwind for styling because of its utility-first approach.

Harper Woodward is a web application for holding live stream concerts with live chat between the viewers and the artist. The app requires authentication and is a secure space for the artist to connect with their audience in an intimate live setting. As Project Manager and Full Stack Developer, I brought a team of 7 engineers through critical decisions regarding DBMS, project architecture, authentication, Git workflows, and division of labor, while at the same time implementing and desiging the Firebase authentication UI.
