Projects

Hackathon - Farm Fast Community Marketplace

I participated in a hackathon for Farm Fast Community Marketplace, a digital platform linking rural farmers with urban consumers. I worked on the frontend/backend team using the Flask framework to develop RESTful APIs and manage user sessions. The platform promotes fair pricing, transparency, and sustainability, and features a rewards system for customers.

Hackathon - Real Estate Pricing Website

I collaborated on developing a real estate pricing website targeting the San Francisco area. Leveraging INRIX APIs, our team analyzed traffic data and transport pick-up/drop-off frequencies to identify high-value real estate locations. My role involved parsing data and utilizing Python for API integration, as well as contributing to the website's development with HTML alongside both the frontend and backend teams.
