Who Got Next? whogotnext-website

Basketball Game Scheduler and Score Keeper


TypeScript | React


Solving a real-life problem: Tracking who is on next at pick-up basketball, and score keeping.


I absolutely love this application because I personally benefit from it every week when I play basketball at church. I painfully watched as my friend Alvin kept track of the order of over 30 people for who was playing next - all on pen and paper. That's when the lightbulb went off in my head to build an app that kept it all organized.



Honda Insight Hub insight-website

Used Car Marketplace Web Scraper


Python | Flask | Selenium | TypeScript | React


One of the quirky cars that I drive is Honda's first ever hybrid car that looks like a jelly bean. I have multiple friends who were curious and ended up buying one for themselves, so I wanted to create a central place for all things Honda Insight.


I Leveraged Selenium to web scrape, clean, and process used car market listings data from sites like Facebook Marketplace, OfferUp, LKQ, and aggregated all the listings into one place, and used ChartJS to build a price trends metrics dashboard that enables users to make informed buying decisions.



Computer Vision Basketball Shot Tracker

Using Computer Vision and Machine Learning to Track Basketball Shot Makes / Misses


OpenCV | YOLO | Python | Machine Learning


I wanted to have technology track my basketball shooting percentage for me, so I built an application that could do it for me using computer vision and machine learning. I Leveraged a deep learning object recognition model called YOLO, and trained it on 1000s of photos that I manually labeled. Combined with OpenCV, the model was able to make real-time inference on my shot attempts and makes on a video the model had never seen before.



About Me

After spending my early career in recruiting at Google and selling Adtech Software at a startup, I decided to make a complete pivot into software engineering and have been loving it.

While I'm away from my desk, you'll catch me shooting hoops, surfing or snowboarding.
