Computer Science Portfolio
1. Project Overview & Technical Contributions
Throughout this academic year, I've developed expertise in full-stack development, agile methodologies, and team leadership through two major projects: Pyre and Prism.
Pyre - Earthquake Monitoring Platform
As Scrum Master for the earthquake monitoring team, I led project coordination while developing critical features:
Help Center: Built a comprehensive user support system with searchable documentation, multimedia support, and integrated ticketing. Implemented intelligent search algorithms for natural language queries and automated issue routing.
Admin Dashboard: Created sophisticated role-based access control (RBAC) with hierarchical permissions. Integrated data visualization tools for user analytics and system performance tracking.
Vcard System: Developed professional networking platform for emergency response community with role-based organization, automated contact updates, and calendar integration.
Contribution - Github Analytics: Pyre

Backend:
One More thing.... I also created documentation for everyone in our group: General API Documentation
Prism - Social Connection Platform
Focused on user connections and creativity through innovative platform features:
Advanced Security: Implemented comprehensive @admin_required framework with multi-layered authentication, session management, API rate limiting, and encrypted data transmission. Built adaptive security that responds to threat levels automatically.
Dynamic Leaderboard: Created intelligent scoring system considering contribution quality, community engagement, and skill development. Features real-time WebSocket updates and personalized progress visualizations.
Language Sharing Module: Built learning platform with code sharing, tutorials, peer reviews, and skill-level matching for programming languages and mentorship opportunities.
Settings Management: Developed SQL-based settings panel with stored data, just for quick updating of the footer that links this API/model to it.

Special Case: Binary Base 64 HW was a Google Form Quiz and Optional Extra Credit
I Taught: Beneficial / Harmful Effects, Lists and Filtering Algorithm, Undecideable Problems, Graphs + Heuristics, and Binary Base 2 Math + Logic Gates.
Learning Through Teaching
A pivotal aspect of my experience was sharing knowledge with others. Frequently guiding peers through problems and walkthroughs deepened my own understanding far beyond passive study. Explaining concepts required me to clarify my thinking and anticipate potential misunderstandings, reinforcing my grasp of the material. This process not only solidified my knowledge but also equipped me to tackle similar challenges on the AP Exam with greater confidence and insight.
Strategic Learning Impact
Each assignment connected to real-world applications, creating personal reference materials used throughout project development. The comprehensive approach built deep familiarity with AP content, making the exam feel like a natural extension of ongoing work rather than separate academic exercise.
This systematic preparation gave me confidence to tackle complex problems and explain concepts clearly, essential skills for both AP success and professional development.
3. Night of the Museum Showcase (June 2025)
The public demonstration challenged us to transform technical projects into engaging experiences for diverse audiences while maintaining system integrity under high traffic.
Advanced Public Implementation
Interactive Feedback System: Developed sophisticated visitor engagement tool with intelligent validation, automatic categorization, sentiment analysis, and real-time notifications. Includes accessibility features and cross-device compatibility.
QR Code & Mobile Integration: Implemented dynamic QR system generating personalized experiences based on scan context. Built progressive web app with fast loading on public WiFi, touch optimization, and responsive design.
Secure Demo Mode: Created sophisticated authentication bypass maintaining security integrity. Features automatic session management, visitor analytics, and seamless account creation transitions with comprehensive logging.
Feedback Recieved From Viewers: (Form) and (Spreadsheet)
Live Demonstration
