FEATURED PROJECTS
DEADLINE
liveSet a deadline, submit, and let it watch the clock. It emails you before the due date slips past — so you can focus on everything else.
CONFLICTS TRACKER

LIGHTNINGWEB API
liveMy first real back end: a public multi-endpoint API for text generation, chat, and utilities. Still the home of my earliest shipping scars.
BOT-BOT
in developmentDiscord moderation bot, rebuilt from the ground up. Currently learning how not to break prod.

ABOUT ME
I'm a CS student addicted to creating the next thing. Using AI, it allows me to focus on the big picture and go bigger than I ever could. I focus on the back while my agent works on the front. I have a strong passion for web development and an even stronger passion for geopolitics. Why not combine those two into a single product? Oh wait, someone already did that, me.

BUILT IN THE OPEN
Most of what I ship has its wires showing on GitHub — products, bots, experiments, and the occasional beautiful disaster. Star something or watch the commits roll in.
