I built an open-source tool that reduces social media usage while teaching vocabulary and simple maths using AI. I conducted a four-week self-experiment showing significant reductions in session duration and improved well-being metrics by building on research papers like Hunt et al., 2018; Kross et al., 2013. The extension disrupts passive scrolling through cognitive tasks that promote mindfulness and improved digital mental health. Built with JavaScript.

I created a pre-LLM era bot that processed and summarized content in real-time. This open-source project integrated with Twitter's API and AWS infrastructure to address information overload Built with Flask, AWS Lambda, AWS RDS, AWS Apprunner, Pulumi, HTML, TailwindCSS.
