Projects

Movie Rating Chatbot

Long flights often left me guessing which inflight movie to watch. Because the inflight catalogue is limited, and lacks reviews or descriptive plot summaries, I often found myself stopping a movie halfway through. To help me make better choices, I developed a Facebook Messenger chatbot that leverages Alaska Airlines’ free inflight messages to provide me with up-to-date reviews.

Workout Buddy App

Whenever I worked out, I found myself juggling between setting timers on my Apple Watch and keeping mental tabs on the set I was on. To streamline this process, I developed a WatchOS app using Swift that automatically tracks the number of sets, rest time between sets, and my heart rate. This app transformed my workout experience by providing an automated, hands-free way to manage these variables.
