Projects

Model Rocket Launch System (WIP)

Microcontroller-based launch system for my model rocket, featuring real-time telemetry and autonomous deployment mechanisms.

Point-o-Sale System Prototype

A prototype for a point-of-sale system for a local business, designed to handle basic transaction processing and inventory management. This design was made using Next.js and was used as a blueprint to improve their operations.

Personal Cloud Drive

Using Cloudflare Tunnels to create a secure, personal cloud storage solution, I host all of my most important files and data from my home.

Single-Cycle CPU

Designed and implemented a single-cycle CPU from scratch using Verilog. This was a challenging, personal project that required my retained knowledge of computer architecture and digital design.
