Work

My Tax Calendar

Many small businesses struggle to manage tax deadlines and requirements, often resorting to hiring Tax Agencies for assistance. However, these agencies were overwhelmed by the manual effort required to track client deadlines and answer basic inquiries. To streamline this process, we are developing a comprehensive application that serves as an intermediary between Tax Agencies and their clients.

This platform enables clients to view upcoming deadlines and necessary tax requirements, enhancing their confidence and understanding of their tax positions and Agencies to get high-level views of what needs to be done for their clients. As a result, the need for frequent meetings is reduced, while the value of necessary interactions is increased.

RV Management Platform

During our collaboration with clients, we identified a common challenge: they were unable to leverage their existing manufacturing data effectively to boost dealership capabilities and generate sales leads. To address this, we developed a SaaS product that imports and organizes their data, enabling the deployment of various applications and services. This solution is designed to be flexible, meeting specific tenant data requirements. It powers a range of applications, including Vehicle Builders (for lead generation), Brochure Generators, Sales Team Portals, and Customer Portals, among others.

The Saikidou Incident

The Saikidou Incident is a narrative-driven puzzle game that draws inspiration from renowned titles like Half Life and Outer Wilds.

As part of a team consisting of five individuals, we developed this game for Brackey's Game Jam 2023.1. Notably, our team was larger than the typical size for this game jam, which provided me with the opportunity to step into the roles of project manager and developer. This experience allowed me to refine my communication and management skills. I'm very proud of what our team was able to put together. Our entry secured an impressive 11th place out of 738 submissions overall and placed 8th in the game design category.
