Music / accessibility / applied AI / web products
Where sound meets software

SongSearch brings my interests in music and engineering together: audio processing, cloud inference, and tools that give artists more context for their creative decisions.

Useful on accessible hardware

With SignLect, I explored real-time sign detection on a Raspberry Pi. The challenge connects computer vision with the practical constraints of affordable classroom hardware.

From model output to something useful

Across emergency-information retrieval, research software, and product work at Elysian, I’m interested in how AI fits into a useful workflow—and where human judgment still matters.

The interface is part of the engineering

From Ivy Journey’s website and online services to this portfolio, I build interfaces and supporting systems with usability, performance, and the person on the other side in mind.

User discovery → product → engineering

I work across software engineering and product management on AI-powered insurance tools.

I initiate user conversations, translate feedback into product improvements, and contribute hands-on engineering within a cross-functional team. I helped ship an initial iteration for user testing.

Design → AI assistance → business growth

I lead full-stack development, website design, and AI integration for a college admissions consulting company.

Built a chatbot with company knowledge and response guardrails, migrated Wix to Vercel, and integrated Resend. The work contributed to 150% client growth and 20% higher conversion; page-load time fell by 90%.

Simulation → analysis → visualization

Built interactive software to help NIST researchers visualize and analyze data for Industrial AI simulation environments.

Combined a PySide6 interface, NumPy-backed calculations, and Matplotlib visualization dashboards. Prioritized intuitive graphing, reproducible simulations, and maintainable open-source repository structure.

Human judgment → model evaluation

Strengthened AI model behavior through dataset curation, output evaluation, and human-aligned validation.

Reviewed model outputs and website features against human intent, usability, and domain-specific quality criteria. Built judgment around supervised-learning data quality and evaluation rubrics.
