Currently a Research Assistant under Prof. Ooi Wei Tsang working on 3D Gaussian Splatting optimization, CCSGP fellow building assistive tech for special needs assessment, and a hackathon regular who builds to win.

Interested in AI infrastructure, developer tools, healthtech, neuroevolution, and quality-diversity algorithms.

A frontend MCP tool that lets AI agents generate and iterate on UI components in real time. Bringing animated illustration generation to agentic workflows.

A visual interface for watching CLI and swarm agents work in real time, with quick approval flows for agent requests.

Full PyTorch implementation surpassing standard benchmarks, plus a custom BPE tokenizer.

Multi-agent LLM routing with MAP-Elites and UCB1 bandit policies for intelligent, privacy-aware model selection.

AI case note copilot for early childhood intervention assessors, helping special needs children get attention faster.

Analytics platform rivaling PostHog that lets website owners automatically adapt their sites based on real customer behavior data.

Built Remember — an AR smart glasses simulator for dementia patients with real-time face recognition, contextual information overlay, and a personal knowledge graph powered by live speech extraction.

Built SecureClaw — a privacy-first on-device AI assistant using FunctionGemma with smart cloud fallback, PII detection, and local-vs-cloud routing.

Built JustPromptBro — a VSCode extension with event-driven keystroke tracking, real-time behavioural feedback, and a Solana smart contract for on-chain game logic.

Built a neural network from scratch and leveraged XGBoost for time-series forecasting on unlabelled market data to predict prices 6 months ahead.
