As a longtime Mint user, I was disappointed when Intuit announced its shutdown in 2023. But in hindsight, it sparked an exciting opportunity — to build a budgeting app of my own. I had recently discovered Plaid, which made it easy to let users securely link their bank accounts without ever sharing passwords.
That’s how Finwatch was born. The app offers seamless banking integration via Plaid, custom transaction categorization, net worth tracking, monthly income and expense summaries, and a unique feature — transaction read receipts — so users can always pick up right where they left off.
And this is just the start. I'm currently working on features like AI-powered category predictions, budgeting tools, transaction splitting, enhanced analytics, and more.

A local Rochester, NY business offers a pop-up style restaurant which advertises when and where they
will be selling their very popular fried chicken to their Instagram followers. Customers have a chance
to get their orders in as soon as the "drop" goes live, but they must be very quick because these sales
sell out within minutes! I designed and built this application from the ground up so the business would
have a branded order workflow to complement their well branded website and instagram. Additionally they
avoid the surcharges they were incurring previously with third party solutions.

Being on the crew team at school filled my phone up with photos of an ergometer screen as each week we
were tasked with getting 1-2 supplemental workouts done on our own time and reporting our workouts to
our coach. So I developed an application that given an image of an ergometer screen it would output the
salient data from the image. In my latest tests, given 62 random images of ergometer screens with
varying quality the program can grab the salient data with 93% accuracy. I believe if this was
implemented in a mobile app that could regulate the quality of images coming in, this percentage would
be sufficient. As of now I only have the backend code written to compute the data from the image. In the
future I would like to develop a mobile app that will put this code to use in real-life scenarios. This
app could prove to be extremely useful for crew teams across the world at any level. Helping teams keep
track of their weekly workouts, holding teammates accountable to completing their workouts, and
improving times by encouraging competition through leader boards every workout.

This was developed when a local pharmacy employee recognized a need for an on-demand prescription
delivery service as customers day after day were vocal with their discomfort waiting in the prescription
pick up line. The application is currently ready to be used, I am in the process of integrating with
local pharmacies who are interested in the platform.

Previously I used Excel spreadsheets to form a budget and keep track of my spending, I found this to be
incredibly tedious and error-prone. So after learning about the Django Framework at RIT, I decided to
make a budgeting application for my personal use.
