Work Experience
Drove rapid adoption, 1,200+ installs and 500+ active users in month one, with Tile-To-Pattern, a Node.js Canva app turning tiles into editable patterns. The build emphasized performance, modular design, and integration with Canva’s creative API. Behind the numbers lies a story of iterative engineering, efficient data handling, and UI experimentation.
Volunteered at a weekend school for over 4 years, handling various tasks including general morning setups, teacher assisting, and front office duties.
Featured Projects
Here are some of my recent projects that showcase my technical skills.
SuperWhisper did not have a Windows version, so I built a completely private, offline speech-to-text application for Windows that uses OpenAI's Whisper models for instant voice transcription with a simple keyboard shortcut.
A Canva application that generates seamless animated patterns using mathematical based animations, featuring real-time preview and export functionality.
A comprehensive tile repeating application that creates seamless patterns from user-uploaded tiles with advanced offset and scaling controls.
A Canva application that automates the extraction of insights from tabular data and creates customizable visualizations using AI.
