    Personal Projects
    MineNewt
    Machine Learning
    Rust, Python, Neural Networks
    Created a machine learning library from scratch in Rust, and researched novel encodings of neural networks with stochastic (probabilistic) bits. Developed a Python library for simulating performance of networks encoded this way, and embedding into a custom architecture.
    Passbirb
    Password Manager
    Vue, Vite, Cryptography
    Researched and optimized a secure algorithm for statelessly generating passwords with Argon2. Developed a responsive and lightweight frontend UI with Vue.js and Vite.
    WaterlooWorms
    Web Scraper & UI
    Vue, Tailwind
    Created a website to efficiently filter, search, shortlist, and view job descriptions scraped from the University of Waterloo's Job Board. Actively used by over 25 students to shortlist jobs significantly faster than the existing "WaterlooWorks" website.
    Forgscript
    Programming Language
    Rust, VSCode
    Created an esoteric programming language that features non-linear code execution inspired by the Collatz Conjecture. Built with Rust and includes a VSCode extension that provides syntax highlighting and visualization tools to improve developer experience.
