2048 Master — AlphaZero RL

Reinforcement Learning

2048 Master — AlphaZero RL

The Problem

2048 is highly stochastic — tile spawns are random and the state space is enormous. Prior bots either lean on hand-tuned heuristics (Expectimax) or shallow planning (Deep Q-Learning), both leaving wins on the table.

AlphaZero-style agent that masters 2048 through pure self-play — no human heuristics. A custom 1D bitboard engine simulates thousands of games per second. A ResNet policy/value network is paired with Monte Carlo Tree Search for lookahead, trained via concurrent self-play, 8-way board-symmetry augmentation, and experience replay. Read the full report.

The Problem

Professional online presence without the technical know how.

I deliver end-to-end web solutions, from design to deployment. Here is a photography portfolio, with a custom CMS to manage all site content. This project runs on a serverless Cloudflare stack (Workers, R2, D1). Other projects include sites for a local bakery, a breath coach, a media studio, and a fine-dining restaurant.

Product Ingredient Analyzer

Product Ingredient Analyzer

The Problem

Product marketing and packaging are very misleading. There are too many obscure ingredients like 'ALPHA-ISOMETHYL IONONE' or 'SOY LECITHIN, MONO + DIGLYCERIDES, CARAGEENAN'. I want to know what they are and if they are safe.

Snap or drop a product label to analyze it instantly. The app uses Gemini Vision for OCR, classifies ingredients, flags risky additives, and leverages Perplexity-powered LLM search for real-time insights—all running on Cloudflare edge.

Sentiment Analysis Dashboard

The Problem

Evaluating public opinion organically is a great way to understand the market. This can be applied to any product or service.

Interactive dashboard that analyzes YouTube comments—tracks sentiment with VADER and visualizes trends, keyword spikes, and word clouds.

News Aggregator & Clean News Feed

The Problem

Clickbait news articles are worse than ever. Closing pop-ups, accepting cookies and filtering through all the jargon is hardly what our ancestors expected us to be doing.

SEC Filing Sentiment for Stock Evaluation

The Problem

Reading through all the SEC filings is difficult. We need to be able to dissect the technical jargon and analyze the sentiment of the company.

Pipeline pulling 8‑K/10‑K filings, cleaning text, running FinBERT sentiment, and exporting buy/sell signals to Excel.
