My Work
Farmer
A system that could automatically manage farms, harvest resources, and reduce the time spent on low-level gameplay chores in Hypixel Skyblock
- Designed simple state machines (e.g., idle → harvest → store → return) to manage different farming phases.
- Optimized loops and checks to avoid unnecessary actions that could cause lag or inconsistent behavior.
- Created a discord bot to provide the user with updates of the bot’s current status
Scouting Project
Building a scouting tool to collect and analyze data for my FRC Robotics Team.
- Designed the data model for scouting entries (teams, matches/events, metrics, notes).
- Implemented the application UI for creating, editing, and reviewing entries.
- Added basic analytics views (e.g., filtering, sorting, simple aggregates) to highlight useful patterns.
- Focused on reliability and simplicity so that non-technical users could adopt it quickly.
Tanius Technology Work
Internally, traders needed a way to visualize positions, executions, and risk in real time without needing to be at their desk. I wrote a fullstack application that could quickly and convienently provide this data.
- Worked on the core data flow using websockets.
- Designed the internal data structures to efficiently apply data deltas and keep to the UI in sync
- Respecting authentication/authorization boundaries by implementing two-factor authentication.
- Tool is used by over half of the firm's traders.
