Projects
GHOST FRAMES
We were sponsored by Lockheed Martin to create a secure communication system by injecting custom 802.11 frames to transmit messages outside the standard network stack. We also created a TCP-like transmission protocol for packet parsing, data reconstruction, and error correction, and bundled it in a desktop application to easily transfer messages and files.
YAF
We created a web app for the organization Young Americans for Freedom, for members to be able to sign in to view upcoming events, track their meeting points, and communicate with other members in messaging groups.
PANDA EXPRESS
We developed a full-stack point of sale prototype for a restaurant. This application includes cashier features for employees, inventory and revenue analysis for management, and even a customer-facing online checkout system.
BUILD TAMU
I revamped the website of my volunteer organization, BUILD, fixing many styling issues, improving the visibility and accessibility, and also developing the member portal.
