Projects

The Kageshi Browser Extension extended the functionality of the video chat platform ezcapechat by leveraging its transition from Flash to JavaScript. Built for both Firefox and Chrome, it added creative features to the platform and highlighted the potential of browser-based extensions through reverse engineering and collaborative development.

The YouTube Queue restored the ability to share videos with friends after the feature on ezcapechat stopped working. Built with Ruby (Sinatra) and JavaScript, it enabled collaborative queue management and synchronized playback, while overcoming the constraints of the YouTube API to deliver a meaningful communal experience.

Halo is a custom RGB LED controller and art piece created from salvaged materials. Using an Arduino Pro Mini and circuit design expertise, I built a functional controller to replace a broken one and fashioned the LEDs into a dazzling halo of light with a rigid frame, creating both structural stability and artistic brilliance.

The New York Bagel Cafe website, built using Jekyll, featured a responsive layout, interactive menu, and custom SVG graphics. By collaborating closely with the cafe and leveraging their physical assets, I created an engaging, maintainable online presence that reflected their brand identity.

Fancy55 is an interactive web experience inspired by Nixie Tube displays. Built using Jekyll, Liquid templates, jQuery, and JavaScript, it transforms the visual style of a Nixie clock into a dynamic logo that displays user-entered text sequentially. With customizable colors and effects, it merges creativity with technical innovation.

Shortcut is a URL shortener built with Ruby and the Sinatra framework. It features custom, hand-drawn SVG graphics designed with mathematical precision, alongside functional URL shortening and redirection. This project highlights my ability to combine technical functionality with visually striking design.
