Portfolio of work
PlanYourCare.tech
A website to show ideal locations for childcare based on a combination of government datasets and other datasets as per GovHack requirements.
My role was backend (database, AWS and video pitch/editing).

- Winner of Innovation using NSW Data - Department of Finance, Services and Innovation
Elon Musk
A tribute to Elon Musk's work. Generated as part of freeCodeCamp's Build a Tribute Page challenge.
Image Category System and Sum of Two Cubes
Two take home projects from an interview.
- Develop a website that allow a user to set up categories and view pictures and descriptions. Requirements: Laravel, jQuery, MongoDB and Flickr API. GitHub Source
- Develop a website that shows whether a number is a sum of two cubes. Requirements: PHP, JS, MongoDB, MySQL stored procedure. GitHub Source
Water, water, everywhere!
NASA hackathon. Develop a tool that provides emergency management personnel with an up-to-date flood-risk map for an area of interest.
My role was setting up the database, porting over data and setting up the hosts. I also helped with research and project design.
Sanction Search
An ease of use website to query the USA's OFAC list from one text box. Fast, simple, partial and fuzzy searches. Minimalist look and responsive design, even on mobile phones. Makes it easy to find out whether a name is on the prohibited persons list that USAs does not allow trades with.
Best Shopping Prices
The website would plot a shopping list of locations to get ingredients or which store(s) was best for a shopping list. The data would come from real-time analysis of people's shopping, thus causing a feedback loop. This project was similar to the government's Grocery Choice which came about during project development but has stopped.
Early hand prototype. I found the grip to be very weak due to mechanics.
Latest hand prototype. This showed promise, with a stronger grip and greater flexibility that was more closely like a human hand.
Latest full arm prototype. The bulky look was akin to a giant robotic arm which could lift several kilos, just enough to cook and clean.
Kitchen Arm
A mechanical arm to prepare and cook meals for you and clean up afterwards. It was based on arduino & pneumatics project. Ideally, it would have worked in conjunction with the Fridge Recipe website.
This had a theoretical lift of up to 1.5kg, ideal for lifting pans, pots and plates of food and/or liquids. The non-industrial mechanical arms, especially toy ones can barely lift 100 grams.
Fridge Recipes
Developed a complex recipe search based on ingredients in fridge. It was meant to help reduce waste. There are similar websites such as Supercook.com
