Software Developer and Business Owner
Hi! I’m a Computer Science and Physics student at the Rochester Institute of Technology, and I enjoy implementing data collection and analysis techniques in support of real-world applications. Here you’ll find some of the projects that I’m either currently working on or have worked on in the past.

My previous project collected limited amounts of data about collectible card prices, but I wanted a system that would provide all the data I could want in terms of investment and resale decisions. Therefore, I developed an application to scrape data from a variety of sources and store it in a remotely hosted relational database, where I then used it for analysis and visualization. Through the support of this application, I have been able to sustain my collectible resale business (Household Gaming) for years by making data-driven decisions and building my understanding of the market from the bottom up.
Collectible card games such as Magic the Gathering or the Pokemon Trading Card Game have been a longtime hobby of mine, but they were very expensive as a kid with no income. Therefore, I developed a basic application integrating Python’s data collection and visualization and Google Sheets’ data storage to track the prices of cards I was interested in and notify me when they passed certain thresholds.
