Fact-checking Application
There is a lot of misinformation online - in ads, media posts, and blogs. Older people don't understand media literacy, and may unknowingly click on ads or scams, not knowing they are harmful. When I saw my own family falling victim to this, I knew I had to make a change.
During the summer, I set my sights on developing an application that can help senior citizens verify the authenticity of information on WhatsApp and Facebook. The app allows the user to type in any query or URL, and using the Google Fact Check API, the app will return a list of truth checkers deeming the source true or false. The design is very simple - it's a basic browser extension - but the capabilities are endless.

Ticket Management App
My Student Council was facing a dilemma - they had no ticket solution for our Halloween event, and making paper tickets was too wasteful. Knowing this, I decided to tackle a daunting task - making a full ticket management application, from scratch, with both client-side and management integrations. The project was a success; I managed to make QR code slips for any students that wanted tickets, and it eliminated paper waste from normal tickets.
