Projects

Vicinia

A chat app in which I developed most of the app part in Flutter as part of PackHacks 2019. I utilized BLoC for state management and used the repository design pattern to ensure clean code. Ran CI/CD through CodeMagic.
DigiBat WearOS Watchface

A custom watchface for my Misfit Vapor. Displays time digitally on top of each other in the center with a circle of ticks going around the edge of the watch to display battery level. Created because I loved the circle status indicator of the default Misfit Vapor watch face but hated the effect it had on the battery.
SheetPlayer-OCR Prototype

Reading pictures of sheet music and outputting them in audio files (midi) to be listened to. This was a personal project for me that I had motivation to do, and to learn lots of different things. In essence, the idea is that you can take a picture of a piece of sheet music with your android phone, and it would play it back to you audibly. It turned out to be a much larger project than I expected, and than I had the knowledge to do. However, thanks to great open source libraries I was able to get it to work, generally.
Rotary International District 7570 Conference App

District 7570 runs a conference yearly, and as with all conferences, communication between conference administrators and attendees can be difficult to manage. This app's purpose is to solve that problem. As a part of this project, I coordinated and held weekly scrum meetings, developed a bulk of the source, and worked effectively with services such as Git and Slack.
