Project History

Property Self-service Portal

Founded the company, created the idea and design, and even developed the website.

Mogel is a property portal that enables end-users to sell or let their properties themselves without the need for an agent to come between, meaning zero agent fees. It is designed to help educate the market and not only provides users with the tools to complete the process themselves but also gives them plenty of information to educate them in the processes involved and all the terminologies.

Search Engine for Hairdressers

This project was my idea which I built from the ground up. I ideated, established a roadmap, built an MVP in WordPress, and launched it.

The hairdresser industry lacks changes in technology. There is a gap in the market for good search engine possibilities. I created a place for hairdressers and salons to upload their profiles to the site and be searchable by various tags and categories. I gave them the ability to self-serve and manage it entirely by themselves with options for adding images, hours, prices, and more.

Token.com

https://token.com

Led the team from idea through user testing and on to MVP launch.

Token.com is a wealth investment app that utilizes stablecoin staking in the cryptocurrency market to get good returns for un-educated crypto-users with minimal risk. This app is brand new to an upcoming market.

OpenAI Project

Founded and developed the project alone using the tools available through modern AI technologies.

This app is still in the works, so I can't share much information, but it is built on top of OpenAI. It uses Python to talk to it, allows user input, and provides responses that are accurate and extremely valuable to people within the medical profession as well as individuals.

Healthcare App

Creator and founder of an ongoing project within the healthcare industry which is still being developed in secret for the next few months.

This project is built on top of several generative AI APIs, such as OpenAI, Bard, and Claude with the idea that we will be using other models in the near future and training our own. A very interesting project!
