Study platform2026 – now

Student Acerstudentacer.com

A free study site for AP and SAT students: PDF study guides written by students, plus multiple-choice practice with every answer explained. Anyone can browse, search, or share their own guides.

I designed, built and run it myself. It started as a hub where I and others could share study guides, and I now use it to study for my own tests.

What it taught me

Vercel hosting, Postgres on Neon, and how to use Claude Code to build sites that look made by a person, not generated.

Clothing brand2026

TAT“Beauty. Abnormal.”

A streetwear brand I started with my friends. I built its online store.

  • First version: a custom Next.js store with a shop, product pages, a cart, a demo Stripe checkout, and a working contact form and newsletter signup.
  • Then moved the brand to Shopify to cut backend setup time, and built a custom Shopify theme for it: warm paper background, one rose-red accent, real photos of the tee instead of mockups.
  • Store features: cart drawer with a free-shipping progress bar, sticky mobile add-to-cart, crossed-out sold-out sizes, and an email signup that reveals a discount code.

Lucentware Corp.2026

Unpaved Journalunpavedjournal.com

A hiking and backcountry journal for a Lucentware product, built as Forward Development Engineer. It uses AI to create camping plans for clients and promotes a paid guide service.

  • Designed like a real notebook: ring holes, bookmark tabs, page turns and parchment texture.
  • Readers browse without an account. Contributors sign in with Google and send in trip reports, which publish after review.
  • An AI Trip Planner makes camping plans. Onboarded 3 clients.
  • Work Hour Tracker: a separate clock-in/clock-out app for the project. Each session is saved to a Google Sheet, so it stays in sync across devices.
