WEB DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS
Dojodachi – is a virtual web application game I created using Asp.Net Core Framework based on the popular game Tamagotchi. The Dojodachis have happiness, fullness, and energy properties that can be maxed out. You can feed, play with, work, or sleep to manage these values and changes occur based on user inputs.

Travelbuddy – is a fully functional web application I built that allows travelers to plan trips and other registered travelers can join planned trips based on pre-existing trips. Created MySQL database schemas along with intricate controllers and models within 4 hours for a Python Belt Exam.
