PROJECTS

Big Z Sounds Page

Big Z Cart Page

Optimized the customer experience using Liquid and custom CSS. The page features a layout compatible with all devices, a clean UI, and ability to add more packs to increase conversions.

Liquid
MealGen Form

Mealgen AI

Web application that queries the ChatGPT API for a personalized meal plan. Users can log in and create/manage meal plans. It is deployed on an EC2 instance. Currently, it serves as an open-source codebase since I have no intention of upkeeping the app. I get great utility from using it locally to keep track of meal plans that fit my needs.

By creating web pages entirely in Liquid, I addressed common design issues for Big Z, including interactive waveforms, increased accessibility with layouts, mobile-friendly designs, and a more customizable theme than Shopify's native options.

Completed as a Force for Good project at JPMorganAndChase, by a small group of engineers including myself. I highlight this project because I was able to utilize my experience with web apps, being proactive on the frontend aspect of a project, and product research.
