AI Agent powered real-time fact-checking desktop app built to verify claims.AI Agent powered real-time fact-checking desktop app built to verify claims. I built this with a group of friends at Columbia's Hackathon (DivHacks 2025). I worked on building the agentic pipeline and integrating the system with an MCP that did research and cross-checked sources. I primarily used LangGraph for building the workflow. The project ended up winning $5,000 for its use of Opik, an AI evluation platform.

Web app that helps introduce people to basic algorithmic trading with cryptocurrencies.Web app that helps introduce people to basic algorithmic trading with cryptocurrencies. I made informational pages on the web app. I also developed a secure and encrypted authentication system. The web app included a preset formula that would allow the user to pick how and when certain trades were executed. The bot could even be connected to the Coinbase API. It also included AI-driven insights, crypto news would be scraped from online, and an AI would tell how it could affect markets.

Web app I designed and built during my freshman year.Web app I designed and built during my freshman year. My first project with AI. The web app allowed people to have an interactive experience while looking for restaurants or cool businesses to visit. You could prompt an AI and type the service you're looking for, and you'd get back a list of options near you based on your requirements. This web app worked very well for finding new places to visit.

Created a fun program during NYU's 24-hour MLH hackathon with 3 friends.Created a fun program during NYU's 24-hour MLH hackathon with 3 friends. This program creates a bridge between Spotify's API and OpenAI's API. It uses the listener's most recent songs to distinguish how the user might be feeling and if they are showing any signs of sadness based on their recent music taste. I helped the team with the backend and the Python/Flask script that connected both APIs.

The web app served as an MVP of an anonymous proximity social media app; users could text each other based on how close they are; they could even set the distance they'd like. This web app was meant to be used in any public area so people could voice any concerns or questions or have a casual discussion. I worked with React and focused on implementing the proximity function.

Developed a vibrating metronome for a freshman-year design project.Developed a vibrating metronome for a freshman-year design project. This metronome was created with the intent of helping people who are hard of hearing "feel the music." The metronome would be connected to an application that would send the song BPM and vibrate accordingly. I helped with various aspects, such as planning, documenting, designing, and developing the Android app that it connected to.
