CopOrNot is a React Native application designed to crowdsource the reporting of law enforcement presence at public transportation stations (currently operational in NYC & Boston). By leveraging real-time location tracking, the app offers users an efficient way to log and access reports, promoting transparency and awareness in public spaces. The app ensures a seamless and intuitive experience with dynamic updates and responsive design, making it user-friendly for anyone on the go.
Ran a test flight amongst friends and had lots of positive feedback
To continue working on AI integration, and to expand beyond NYC/Boston, improve responsiveness, deploy to app store and google play, migrate hosting to AWS or GCP
Platnm is your one stop shop for all musical discourse. In the Fall of 2024 I joined Generate as a software engineer, where I worked throughout the stack to help build Platnm. Using Nix as a package manager for cross-platform development, my team and I iterated weekly by working on backend (Go + Fiber) and frontend (React Native + Expo) tickets. By the end of the 4 months of development we had a working MVP that we were able to present to the community at Northeastern, and ultimately hand off to our client.
