About me

Turning real-world needs into working web apps

I'm a Computer Science student at Dallas College with a focus on full-stack web development: modern React front ends backed by Supabase and PostgreSQL, with authentication and data security designed in from the start.

Right now I'm building the complete digital platform for Irving Nepal FC: a public club website, a member portal with payments and a role-based admin dashboard, and automation that turns live match data and videos into news. I like owning a product end to end, from the database schema to the last pixel, and I'm learning ethical hacking and application security along the way.

  • Digital membership card with member number and "member since" year
  • Teams, matches and training sessions with RSVP, attendance, and stats

Automation & AI

AI-Assisted Newsroom

A daily pipeline that turns the club's YouTube uploads and match results into polished news drafts, so volunteers don't have to write every update by hand.

Key details
  • Vercel Cron job secured with a bearer secret runs the sync every day
  • Claude API rewrites posts into articles under strict "never invent scores, quotes, or dates" rules
  • Relevance filter skips memes and off-topic posts automatically
  • Deduplication log so nothing is processed twice
  • Everything lands as a draft: a human reviews before anything is published
  • Uses YouTube's uploads playlist instead of search to save API quota
  • Claude API
  • YouTube Data API
  • Vercel Cron
  • Supabase

Automation

Auto-Generated Match Graphics

  • Real opponent logos where available, and a clean monogram badge otherwise, never a fake logo
  • Match reports drafted from ClubVerse results with no inferred facts
  • Graphics stored in Supabase Storage and linked from each article
