Works on Water (2023)
In the summer of 2023, I undertook a research project to develop a web-based interactive map for the artist collective Works on Water under the supervision of Professor Nancy Nowacek. Utilizing JavaScript and the Google Maps API, I created a webpage that showcases Works on Water projects around the world and organizes them by location. This webpage can be accessed at the Works on Water Map website and will continue to be maintained and updated by Stevens student researchers, who received training under my supervision.

Artist Website Design (2022)
In the summer of 2022, I designed an experimental-style website for the artist, composer, and professor Lainie Fefferman as part of my position as a summer researcher at Stevens Institute of Technology. I designed and prototyped the website in Adobe XD, and created assets in Adobe Illustrator. Alongside the website mockup, I created a design guide for the website to ensure aesthetic consistency in future updates.

Mack Commits (2020)
In the spring of 2020, at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic quarantine, a friend and I created a website for Commack High School seniors to replicate the Commack tradition of signing college pennants in a virtual space.
I came up with the idea to create “Mack Commits” during the first two weeks of quarantine while I was thinking about the traditions and events we were going to miss, including Commitment Day. I thought about how every year the pennants line the main hallway, decorated with signatures of the seniors committed there, and came up with the idea to create a website where students could virtually sign the pennants and see where their peers would be going or what their post-high-school plans were.
"Each year, college pennants line the main hallway, decorated with signatures of the Senior Class. This year, two CHS seniors, Jacob and Sydney, have created an outstanding platform to be used for the Senior Class to announce their post-high school plans. “Mack Commits” is inclusive of the entire Senior Class. Senior students will have the ability to electronically submit their future plans which may include colleges, the military, trade schools or unions, etc. For any student who has not submitted their post-high school plans, please use the following link: https://mackcommits.com/" - Commack High School Administration
On Commitment Day, May 1st 2020, virtual confetti was launched when visitors entered the website.
