Where I've Worked
Course Assistant, CS 233
August 2026 – PresentUniversity of Illinois Urbana-Champaign • Computer Architecture
- • Support 272 students during discussions and office hours on hardware topics and digital logic.
- • Guide students through debugging Verilog, MIPS Assembly, and pipelined datapaths.
Freelance Developer
July 2025 – PresentIndependent Software Engineering
- • Built 4 full-stack web apps and secure payment workflows using Go, HTMX, Stripe, and GCP.
- • Automated 100+ email workflows with Go and GCP, eliminating manual labor on status updates.
Things I've Built
Self-Hosted Homelab
Proxmox VE, Docker, Portainer, Ollama, LinuxMulti-node virtualization hypervisor hosting containerized workloads and hybrid local/cloud AI architecture.
- • Designed and maintained a multi-node Proxmox VE hypervisor hosting OMV, Ubuntu, and containerized workloads via Docker and Portainer, sustaining >99.9% uptime across 15+ microservices.
- • Architected a hybrid AI stack routing tasks between local models via Ollama and frontier cloud LLMs for complex reasoning, integrating an autonomous Hermes agent to execute system tasks over iMessage.
Red Lion Cam
Computer Vision, Python, Multi-threading, GPU AccelerationMulti-threaded computer vision pipeline streaming live video and dynamically translating patron counts into real-time wait-time metrics.
- • Engineered a multi-threaded computer vision pipeline to ingest camera feeds, maintaining a 30 FPS zero-lag public video stream while asynchronously executing background person-detection inference.
- • Implemented adaptive dual-zone masking for variable lighting conditions and integrated hardware GPU acceleration, dynamically translating smoothed patron counts into real-time wait-time metrics.
Cloud Cost Predictor (HackIllinois)
Go, Python, Cloud APIs, ObservabilityFull-stack financial observability platform forecasting cloud deployment expenditures and detecting anomalous usage.
- • Built a full-stack financial observability platform that parsed codebases to map 20+ distinct cloud API services to real-time pricing tiers to forecast deployment expenditures.
- • Aggregated multi-provider cloud resource consumption metrics into a unified dashboard and seamless API, identifying anomalous usage to prevent surprise billing spikes.
LaundryLink
Go, SQLite, HTMX, Auth0, StripeFull-stack platform providing peer-to-peer laundry services hosted on a remote Linux server.
- • Architected a full-stack peer-to-peer laundry platform with Go, SQLite, and HTMX, driving >100 page views and user requests within the first 24 hours of launch.
- • Implemented Auth0 for user identity and Stripe for secure checkout, packaging the environment with Docker and Bash deployment scripts to reduce rollout time by 50%.
