Projects

PiTunes

Check it out!

PiTunes is a music player powered by Raspberry Pi and Raspotify, controlled through RFID tags. Using a Python script with Spotipy API calls, PiTunes lets you pause, skip, or play specific songs and albums with just a tap. Enjoy a personalized music experience where each tag brings up something new.

Check it out!
Demonstrative gif for Maze Finder project

This recursive program in Java uses user input as arguments for the dimension of a maze and solves from user selected points with recursive backtracking and stacks in order to find the shortest possible path.

Knight's Tour

Check it out!
Demonstrative gif for Knight's Tour project

This is a program that solves a Knight's Tour problem using recursive backtracking both in Java and C++

Complex Numbers

Check it out!
Sample image of Complex Numbers project

This is an application that solves arithmetic operations for complex numbers. The Python and C++ versions use operator overloading. Since operator overloading is not legal in java, the Java version uses method calls instead.

Non-Profit Website

Check it out!

I'm currently developing a website for The House of Faith Inc. This will be the organization's first ever website aiming to bring in more homeless clients to get housing.

Small Bash Scripts

Check it out!

This repository contains various bash scripts that I've made from coursework, but also some for fun during my free time!

More Coming Soon!
