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.

  • wxs.us (Weather Service) A Go-based terminal weather service hosted on AWS, delivering US forecasts, alerts, and severe weather outlooks via curl and an interactive SSH dashboard. Built on NWS and NOAA Storm Prediction Center data, it requires no API keys or accounts, just a terminal. Features 7-day forecasts with ASCII art, active weather alerts, severe weather outlooks, and hourly breakdowns. Visit Site →

  • 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.

AI Enhanced Projects Link to heading

These projects are AI Architected. While AI assists in writing the code, a human reviews every line for security, correctness, and maintainability. The developer directly instructs the AI on best practices and architecture throughout the coding process.
