Swiper Systems

Founder and lead developer of Swiper Systems. Swiper Systems is a cross-platform service that re-associates the natural human action of swiping with positive, productive actions.

Implemented with Android Native Java, and React.js with Express/Node.js backend. Working on voice AI integration for user's hyper-convenience. Currently in development and undergoing user testing.

Weave

Built for the STEM Connect 2025 Hackathon, Weave is a mobile-first social platform that enables groups of friends to create collaborative video compilations through a unique "weaving" format. We used FastAPI, AWS, and Postgres for the backend, and React Native for the frontend. Users can enjoy a clean and intuitive UI especially on mobile.

Also implemented with React.js, Express/Node.js backend. Utilized Google Maps API.
