Projects

Sno Relax

React • Node • MongoDB

Problem: Users needed a clearer daily system for mood tracking, engagement, and personal reflection.

Solution: Built a wellness workflow platform and integrated an AI chatbot layer to support guidance and user interaction.

Impact: Improved recurring session retention and reduced friction in daily usage paths.

Web Development Projects

Next.js • Firebase

Problem: Rebuilding core patterns from scratch slowed delivery and introduced repetitive implementation mistakes.

Solution: Developed a reusable collection of frontend and full stack implementations for faster launch cycles.

Impact: Reduced setup time and improved delivery consistency across new builds.

Python Automation

Python • Selenium

Problem: Repetitive QA workflows increased manual effort and slowed regression cycles.

Solution: Implemented reusable Selenium automation scripts for recurring test flows and routine validations.

Impact: Cut repetitive execution effort and improved QA turnaround for regular releases.
