Coding Projects
My coding projects may be some of my favorite things I've done! I struggle to find projects to work on because I almost refuse to build anything that doesn't have a practical use case; therefore, most of my projects are tools that I use to make someone's life easier.
Non-Linear Optimization Algorithm
Developed a non-linear optimization algorithm specifically designed for an idle mini-game. This project involved creating efficient algorithms to solve complex optimization problems, balancing computational efficiency with accuracy. The algorithm handles multiple variables and constraints typical of game mechanics.
VBA Automation Scripts
Tournament Management Automation: Built a VBA script using the start.gg API to automate tournament management for Super Smash Bros. tournaments. This script handles bracket generation, match tracking, and result reporting, significantly reducing manual work for tournament organizers.
Financial Aid Automation: Created a comprehensive VBA solution (nearly 1000 lines of code) that automated repetitive tasks at my workplace, saving the Financial Aid department approximately 8 hours per week. This wasn't part of my job duties—just something I built because I saw an opportunity to improve efficiency. The script handles data processing, report generation, and various administrative tasks that were previously done manually.
RAG-Enabled Local AI Model
In reference to a Bookstack project at my job, I customized a back-end RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) enabled local-AI model to access and query information within Bookstack. This allows for intelligent document retrieval and question-answering capabilities using locally-hosted AI, ensuring data privacy while providing powerful search and information access features.
ComfyUI Workflows
Created custom ComfyUI workflows for local image generation at home. These workflows automate complex image generation pipelines, allowing for consistent and reproducible results. The custom workflows are tailored to specific artistic styles and generation requirements.
Note: Several of these projects are in VBA or associated with my workplace, so they can't be shared publicly. I have a few other projects hosted on my GitHub page, feel free to check out what I do have available here!
