🌱 Currently working on:

Working on obtaining domain knowledge in cybersecurity and computer networks. Currently tinkering with cloud computing in an android application focused on biking at Stony Brook University.

🚀 Projects

Milton: Scan Art with ML: An app that makes art galleries interactive, where you can get context/education information from artists by scanning.
STARS: Stony Brook Assembler and Runtime Simulator: Worked alongside Professor McDonnell and Professor Mitra at Stony Brook University to develop STARS, a Python program that parses and emulates MIPS assembly execution.
Malloc!: A x86-64 dynamic memory allocator written in C. Completed as a university project. Utilizes segregated free lists and "quick lists" to improve time complexity. Immediately coalesces large blocks with adjacent free blocks on free, splits without splinters, and omits block footer to improve space efficiency.
RaceTree: A full-stack web application built for sim-racing professionals and hobbyists. RaceTree focuses on providing 3 key features: profile pages, a platform stewarding user uploaded youtube clips with a publicly accessible API, and an Esport Driver Registry API for users with a RaceTree account.
Forum Microservice: A containerized forum microservice that powers Reddit-style discussions with voting, user profiles, scalability, and an API. Users can register, login, and perform various actions such as creating posts, commenting, and voting on posts.
Plants Vs Zombies with Tkinter: A Tkinter desktop game developed while taking Carnegie Mellon's 15-112. This program pushes the rendering limits of Tkinter and was developed with the goal of learning about the capabilities of Tkinter.

Kev's Projects

esport-driver-registry

Esport Driver Registry (EDR) provides an API for competitive sim-racing communities to look-up and update the driving records of registered sim-racers with a Universal Driver ID. The Esport Driver Registry seeks to make participation across racing leagues easier and increase driver accountibility.

forum-microservice

Designed to provide a scalable and containerized environment for deploying a microservice-based application resembling a Reddit-style forum. Users can register, log in, and perform various actions such as creating posts, commenting, and voting on posts.

free-web-developement-books

This is a backup edition of @TechBookHunter's curated collection of free Web development related eBooks available on the Internet. The original repository no longer exists.

intelligent-scissor

An implementation of an optimal scissor algorithm for segmenting at object boundaries described in: E. N. Mortensen and W. A. Barrett, “Intelligent Scissors for Image Composition,” in ACM Computer Graphics (SIGGRAPH `95), pp. 191-198, 1995

malloc

A x86-64 dynamic memory allocator written in C. Completed as part of a homework assignment. Utilizes segregated free lists and "quick lists" to improve time complexity. Immediately coalesces large blocks with adjacent free blocks on free, splits without splinters, and omits block footer to improve space efficiency.

network-implementation-in-mips

A network data structure implmented with MIPS. Dynamically allocates memory in heap. Tested in MARS Simulator

plantsvszombiesparody

A parody/remake of the Plants vs Zombies game. Created using tkinter and python. The file cmu_112_graphics.py was created and provided by Carnegie Mellon Unversity's CMU 15-112 course.

racetree-production

A hub for Sim Racing Professionals and Hobbists inspired by LinkTree and Reddit. Showcase your racing accoldates on your free profile and build a reputation among fellow racers with crowdsourced stewarding.
