I build mobile software and automation around real data: restaurant discovery with OpenStreetMap and Supabase, pricing analysis across item markets, and internal scripts that cut setup time at Staples.

Proof points

What I can point to.

A few numbers from the resume and current projects. These are the details worth asking about.

Selected work

Work I would walk through.

Not every project needs a card. These are the ones I can talk through in detail.

Mobile app

NYC Halal Map

React Native, Expo, TypeScript, OpenStreetMap, Overpass API, Supabase | Jan 2026 - Present

In progress

I built the cross-platform app, custom database structure, authentication integration, location logic, and modular code organization.

Use case

Make halal restaurants across NYC discoverable through a mobile map experience rather than a static directory.

App shape

React Native and Expo client backed by Supabase data models, OpenStreetMap/Overpass discovery, and location-based restaurant queries.

What I built

  • Google and Apple ID sign-in for secure authentication.
  • Distance calculations for nearby restaurant display.
  • Services, components, and utilities split so the app can keep growing.

Python automation

Profit Optimization for Virtual Item Trading

Python, API integration, web scraping, Loot Farm, Swap.gg | Dec 2024 - Present

Public repo

I built the data retrieval, normalization, price comparison, and discrepancy-detection logic for in-game item markets.

Market gap

Virtual item prices vary across markets for CS:GO, Dota 2, Team Fortress 2, and Rust, creating short-lived arbitrage opportunities.

Build

Aggregates API and scraped data, converts source responses into comparable records, and ranks opportunities by profit margin.

Numbers

  • 50,000+ items processed per minute.
  • 500+ profitable trades discovered per hour.
  • 40% faster retrieval and processing after optimization.

Older repos

Algorithms and systems repos

Java and C++ implementations that show the CS foundation behind the product work.

Foundations

Huffman Coding

Java compression and decompression implementation using linked-list and binary-tree structures.

Repository

Scheduling

C++ implementations of scheduling algorithms that demonstrate operating-system process management concepts.

Repository

QuadTree

C++ spatial partitioning data structure for efficient region-based lookup and organization.

Experience

Technical work on the job.

My work experience is not a traditional SWE internship. It still has useful signal: automation, support, access control, systems maintenance, and infrastructure coordination.

Qcells Enable

IT Specialist | Feb 2024 - Feb 2025

  • Set up and maintained remote workstations to support remote access and continuity.
  • Implemented user templates for departmental provisioning and license allocation.
  • Managed Azure Active Directory for authentication and access control.
  • Participated in firewall and networking upgrades to improve security and performance.
  • Resolved an average of 75 technical issues per day across software and hardware support.
  • Coordinated with vendors on IT infrastructure upgrades, including installation of 500+ new laptops.

Staples

Print & IT Specialist | May 2023 - Present

  • Developed internal scripts and templates that reduced order processing time by 30%.
  • Managed multiple concurrent programs to keep store operations running efficiently.
  • Updated and maintained software systems used in daily operations.
  • Identified repetitive production tasks and automated portions of the workflow to reduce manual input and errors.

Notes from the work

The patterns I keep running into.

Most of my projects sit where data, operations, and user workflows meet. These are the pieces I have had to reason through.

Messy external data

Pricing data comes from APIs and scraped sources, then has to be normalized before it is useful.

Maps and distance

The halal map depends on OpenStreetMap, Overpass API, location queries, and distance calculations.

Accounts and access

At Qcells Enable, I worked with Azure Active Directory, remote workstations, firewall/networking upgrades, and patches.

Scripts that save time

At Staples, internal scripts and templates reduced order processing time by 30%.
