Vlographer - Co-Founder

A tool to easily find new Youtube channels/vlogs based on your interests.

Problem: Youtube is full of cats videos and there is no way to find vlogs that I'm interested into on Youtube.

Solution: I built a crawler to go through millions of Youtube channels, wrote a couple of scripts to weed out none active channels, none vloggers, and assigned each a channel a category based on tags, description, and their relationship to other channels. Then built a tool to allow users to search channels based on categories, and a tool to suggest them new channels based on their subscriptions and likes.

Expedia - Software Engineer II

• Implemented front-end features for Expedia’s car rentals page to increase customer conversion rate and optimize the user experience using JS, React, Ember and Less for the front-end.

• Extended the capabilities of Expedia’s homepage search forms by introducing the search bundling feature which now allows users to get a single rate for all their trip needs instead of doing separate search.

• Improved the accuracy of cars rental search results algorithm to provide more result options to users without increasing search latency. Most of this was on the backend side, which is written in Java Spring.

• Wrote unit tests and documentations for system designs and onboarding new hires.

Smart Walls - Maker

Turning walls into touch smart screens using a 3D camera (Kinect).

Problem: I had a projector in my room and I thought it would be cool if I can use the wall as a touch screen instead of just displaying videos.

Solution: I utilized an open source project and modified it to build a couple of apps to add touch interactivity to projection. Here is a video of me turning my microwave oven into a smart screen.
