Hobbies

In my free time when I am not with my family, pets, or outdoors, I am often at my desk creating applications for use by my friends or for personal use. For example, the last two projects on my GitHub that I worked on are as follows...

  • In 2019 I created an Android App with multiple activities and use-cases that managed my Grandmothers type-2 diabetes. This app consisted of an initial welcome page, a blood-glucose calculator, an area for meal tracking, and a visualization page filled with graphical data pertaining to blood glucose levels and insulin recommendations.
  • This year I created a Python desktop application that utilized Selenium Browser Automation framework and PyQt5 GUI toolkit Qt. This application automatically retrieves data from an online banking website, downloads PDF copies of bank statements, scrapes the contents, organizes data, stores it in a database, and graphically represents the data in order to show trends in spending, categories of spending, and areas of concern when it comes to over/underspending.
