About Me

I am a software engineer and currently a junior at the University of South Carolina. I developed a love of computer science when I was 12 years old, and later became fascinated with the fundamental concepts of math and physics. I carried this fascination through to my college years, where I met several great people and gained invaluable experience. Now, I'm looking for the next great project.

This job gave me valuable hands-on experience in communicating with non-technical people.

Projects

1. Anonymorse

Created March 2023 (Source Code)
Omegle-like anonymous chatroom with a gimmick -- you can only talk in beeps.
It could range from an advanced tool to a cheap toy based entirely on your knowledge of Morse Code.

2. Terminal Graphics Framework

Created May 2019
Lightweight curses-like terminal graphics library written in Python with zero dependencies
I made this for those who want to create simple graphical prototypes or games in the terminal.

3. SHA-256 Demonstration

Created April 2019
A visual demonstration of the SHA-256 hash algorithm in process written in Python.
Covers each step of the process, including padding, generating the constants and message schedule, and round function computation.
This was one of my favorite projects to work on, and I am considering coming back to improve it sometime.

4. Terminal Image Viewer

Created April 2019
An ultra-lightweight tool for viewing common image file formats in the terminal, with only one dependency.
