Projects

These are some of the projects I’ve built over the years. Each one came from a specific need, curiosity, or personal interest rather than just a coding exercise. For more details and code, visit my GitHub profile.

  • AI Call Bot
    A Go-based voice-driven AI agent deployed as a Digital Ocean serverless app, accessible via phone demo at (734) 766-7700.
    This project reflects my passion for communication systems, bringing together telephony, AI models, real-time speech recognition, and voice response into a production-style environment.

  • Simple Key Value Server (SKVS)
    A tiny, key-value store written in Go and deployed over UDP.
    I built this because Redis and similar systems carried far more operational surface than my workload justified. My API needed a fast, read-heavy, single-owner cache with strict latency guarantees, no persistence, and nothing extra. By owning both ends of the protocol, I kept the wire format minimal, encryption mandatory, and behavior predictable.

  • TTS (Text-to-Speech CLI)
    A command-line tool for converting documents into speech using AI.
    I originally wrote this before mainstream tools made the process simple — it solved my own problem of wanting to listen to written material in a flexible, scriptable way.

  • JackBot
    A Discord-based conversational AI bot written in TypeScript.
    I built it for my kids, naming it after their cat. It became a fun way to experiment with event-driven programming, API integration, and personality-driven design while making something meaningful to my family.
