LifeBac is an online problem-drinking treatment platform that my father and I started in 2018. From concept to research to funding to launch, I’ve spent over four years building out our program to eight states and raising over $1,000,000 in investor funds. My responsibilities at LifeBac include:

• All graphic design, including the company logo, app logos, marketing materials, coaching materials, and internal training
• Almost all investor materials, including an interactive pitch deck & one-pager, the business plan, financial and market research, and regular investor updates
• All video production for advertisements, tutorial & intro videos, and app tutorials, including a script for a video to be produced by Kurzgesagt.
• Maintaining and updating the mobile app and web portal
• Updating and maintaining the company website
• Writing content for app modules, internal training guides for new staff, and investor communications

I freelance web design, web development, content creation, and graphic design for two current clients. I meet with clients who have little to no experience with web design, and turn anything from a few bullet points on a notepad to hand-drawn site concepts into functional, fast, and modern online interfaces.

I worked with PhD students at ETH Zürich and the University of Zürich’s Institute of Neuroinformatics on various small projects in neuromorphic computing and machine vision. Programming in Python, JavaScript, and some C++. I was mentored by Julien Martel, Turlough Neary, and Professor Matt Cook.

I worked with PhD students at Sydney University’s Institute for Astronomy on creating a Python application that analyzes and compares different processing pipelines for Kepler K2 data. I was mentored by Professor Tim Bedding.

Extracurricular

The Medallion Program educates student leaders by providing opportunities for intentional learning, self-reflection, and skill development. Students enrolled in the Medallion Program gain a strong sense of self-awareness, work effectively with others, and become civically and socially engaged. I joined the Medallion Program to hone my leadership skills and meet like-minded student peers.

As a trained ECM Technician, I set up, ran, and troubleshooted campus events like academic conferences, student performances, and Meliora Weekend festivities.

With a project centered around the health, safety, and comfort of children during disaster relief, I led my 4-person team to win the Choate Rothberg Catalyzer and advance to compete as the only high school team against Yale, Brown, Carnegie Mellon, and the University of Pennsylvania. Our project, taking the form of a children’s toy, incorporates biomedical data sensors and feedback to assess and aid the physical and mental health of children and adolescents affected by major disasters.

The official web wallet for the cryptocurrency Locke (deprecated), a tiny crypto start-up from 2017 that didn't survive the market crashes since. While lockepocket.com is now also obsolete, I used its core code to post an ERC-20 web wallet template to GitHub that's been forked by a few to make sleek, responsive, and simple ERC-20 token web wallets of their own.

MeetUp is an online application that enables a group of people to coordinate the scheduling of a shared event. Once users set their own persistent schedule of available vs. occupied timeslots, MeetUp propagates that information to every associated event, allowing everybody to seamlessly schedule a time that works for them all. Similar in principle to When2Meet, MeetUp makes significant improvements with an updated, modern, mobile-first UI; user accounts with pre-set weekly schedules; and no advertising, tracking, or financial profit of any kind.

FUSION is AFWERX's flagship yearly two-day event hosted jointly by the United States Air Force and AFWERX. 120 teams showcased their technological solutions to Air Force leadership and other military executives. As a volunteer, I supervised the entrance to the main showfloor and provided general assistance wherever necessary.
