Projects

Here are the projects I've developed, each inspired by the motto "See a need, fill a need." I've pursued these journeys through self-directed learning, with a focus on creating solutions that make a tangible impact. I'm always working on a new project - stay tuned for more!


Lunar Birthdays
Birthday Reminder & Converter

Created a SwiftUI iOS app to save birthday profiles in core data and count down until the next. It will notify users of upcoming birthdays. The main idea is to help ABC's (American-born Chinese) to help remember their family's birthdays since Lunar birthdays are never on the same day on Gregorian calendars.

Claimbot
Automate Insurance Claim Submission

Developed a Python script with CTkinter and Selenium to automate submitting health insurance claims on Office Ally. It uses an Excel template to pull account and member information to autofill claim forms. By selecting which member list and range of dates, it will automatically submit and download each claim and record the total value. This program has increased efficiency of submitting claims by 90% for 500 clients biweekly.

Order Up
Remote Food Ordering

Developed a full-stack web application with Node.js enables remote food ordering for social adult day cares, allowing kitchen staff to set daily menus and track orders effortlessly. It features self-ordering capabilities with schedule-aware menus managed by the staff. It saves the kitchen staff 30 minutes each day from manually asking every individual for their meal preference.

Timesheet
Excel Modification Automation

Developed a Python script with a GUI to automate the timesheet creation process. For the start of every new month, over 500 unique timesheets are neededed. Achieved 45 hours of monthly time-savings by constructing this script. Timesheets are curated based on service days, month, and year.
