Binary Search Tree/AVL Tree/Scheduling Implementation
●	Programmed a fully functional Binary Search Tree in C++ that can be easily included and used in one’s own program.
●	This class inherits from the BST class and overrides the necessary functions (insert and remove). It maintains the unique AVL self-balancing property with built in height fields. Can also be included in other files.
●	Scheduling Program: Utilizes previous AVL Tree implementation and adjacency list graph. Reads in input files consisting of students, exams, and time slots to find a schedule of exams that works for all students (if possible).

DragonStack
●	Built a multi-account web application for breeding, trading, and purchasing “dragons” with in-game currency. Data is managed through PostgreSQL database system.
●	Employed Node.js timer library to asynchronously update generations of dragons and object-oriented programming principles to effectively simulate real life animal behavior. 
●	Utilized Express.js to create API endpoints, Node.js on the server-side backend, React for the frontend user interface, and Redux to manage the application state.
A* Search Implementation for Doublet Puzzle
●	Used my implementation of a “D-ary” Minheap data structure to solve Lewis Carroll’s “Doublet” word transformation puzzle (given two words of identical length and a dictionary of words, transform from one word to the other in the least number of moves).
●	Coded the A* Search sorting algorithm in C++ to solve the problem (heuristic was how many letters differ between the current word and the end word. The codebase is available on my Github page.

PixelStick
●	Developed and programmed a six-foot long PixelStick (aesthetically prints images and designs in long exposure photography) in C++ to obtain and read BMP or JPG files, printing them onto LEDs via Arduino microcontroller.
●	Curated hardware including LED strip, SD card slot, OLED display, and lightweight/portable frame.
