Projects
Hack the North @ UWaterloo
We saw an opportunity to use LLMs to allow for better understanding of big, sensor-based data. As a proof of concept, we collected data on soil moisture and sunlight for house plants and allowed the user to talk to the data collected through a chatbot.
Borealis AI: Let’s Solve It Mentorship Program
Health Canada estimates 7% of Canadian homes have unsafe yet preventable radon levels, which can cause lung cancer. Remove Radon is a tool we created during a 2-month program with Borealis AI and RBC that helps people assess their radon exposure and make those insights actionable.

New Venture Project @ Ivey Business School
In the second-hand luxury goods market, 20% of consumers are defrauded into purchasing a counterfeit product. Over a year, my team and I developed and implemented the business idea for VLA, a service that enables buyers to verify the good’s ownership history on a blockchain before purchasing.
Electrical and Computer Engineering Department @ Western University
As more communities are transitioning to clean energy, there are some inefficiencies when managing the energy created. For the past 6 months, I have been researching and developing a system that can distribute energy between peers automatically on a ledger to increase cost and energy savings.
Check out my research here.
CS3307 Object-Oriented Design and Analysis @ Western University
For a 4-month school project, my team and I created a Raspberry Pi Smart Home Hub that contains useful information for the day. I worked on the back-end of the bus widget that allows a user to see when their next bus to school or work is coming.
R. U. Hacking? Hackathon @ Reading University, UK
When the COVID-19 vaccines were first introduced, people were concerned about the authentication of vaccine passports. In a 24 hour hackathon, my team and I created SafeCred to create and verify the authenticity of COVID-19 vaccine records.
SheHacks V @ Western University
The unfortunate reality of donating to charity is that you don’t know where your money is being spent or if it’s going towards the cause at all. In a 48 hour hackathon, my team and I designed and implemented Helping Hands to let donators track exactly where their dollars go.
HackWestern7 @ Western University
With COVID-19 forcing many public spaces to close, people were spending time outdoors more than ever. In a 48 hour hackathon, my team and I made a web app called Explore myCity that generated paths for London locals to explore areas of their city they may not have visited otherwise.
