A centralized, secure token service (STS) protocol for public-key cryptography authentication based on smartphone biometry.

I co-authored the protocol and contributed to its design and documentation.

A pet project of a couple of university professors that allows users to chat in real-time. The app is mainly used as a playground for students to tinker and as a foundation for some homework assignments.

I added end-to-end encryption with two independent modes of operation: CBC mode with HMAC in EtA (encrypt-then-authenticate) composition and GCM mode.

Technologies used include Electron, Node.js, MongoDB, React, Redux, Webpack, Git.

A free IT conference that spans over two days and has over 1,000 attendees. The conference is held in Split and features talks by employees from companies like Microsoft, Ericsson, Rimac Automobili, and many more.

I was a lead ticketing manager and developed a custom solution for logging the attendees and printing their customized accreditations. I was also in charge of managing event volunteers and guest hospitality.

Technologies used include ASP.NET Web API, C#, SQL, Entity Framework, LINQ, JavaScript, AngularJS, HTML, CSS, Bootstrap, and Git.

A course of activities that includes lectures, workshops, mentoring, real-world projects, private competitions, and team-building focused on empowering a new generation of interns to become functional members of the association.

I was a lead manager of the project and its development, in charge of over 20 people divided into eight teams working on the project and 110 interns and six partner companies. After the project launched in January, I held lectures and workshops and mentored one of the intern teams.

Conducted the redesign of the ministry's official website, aiming to make it closer to the public and more transparent in its activities.

Hydrocontest 2016 competition took place at Lausanne, Switzerland, featuring full boats completely built by participating faculty members.

I built a monitoring app for the FESB team. The app displays human-friendly data about the boat and its components and logs them in CSV form. Data gathered by the app was studied and used for improvements in the next year's submission. The communication between the boat and the app was done over a wireless protocol that I've designed in collaboration with the team's embedded developer and an electrical engineer.

Technologies used include .NET, WPF, C#, MahApps.Metro, Git.

A web application that automatically grades solutions written in C and C++. It was used at III gimnazija (high school) in Split as an official way of submitting school work and homework in the computer programming class, serving hundreds of high-school students over the years of its activity. The project won a 4th place award at a Croatian National competition in software development 2014.

I worked on defining the project's goals, designing the UI, and the front-end development of the application.

Technologies used include PHP, MySQL, JavaScript, jQuery, HTML, CSS, Bootstrap.
