01
No perfection
Shipped imperfect beats never shipped perfect. Every time.

Experimenting
with ideas.
Shipping what sticks.
Small tools, late-night builds, random ideas.
Some worked. Most did not. All are here.
// what this is
Not a portfolio.
A playground.
02
No overthinking
Idea at 11pm, prototype by 3am. That is the whole plan.
03
Just building
If it solves a problem I had, it belongs here. Period.
04
Failure counts
Failed experiments get their own section. No hiding.

Current Project
IceBreaker
Started from a painfully specific problem: freezing in a real conversation. IceBreaker turned that into a live product people actually use, with fast prompts for dates, crushes, new friends, and awkward group moments.

Everything
I shipped.
Crop
Sprite sheet cropper built because I was tired of doing it manually at 3am.
AvaAgent
Local-first Avalanche wallet toolkit and Codex plugin I made for fun. It works, but AI touching wallet actions is still risky.
AVAXVERSE
Avalanche Web3 super app with a crazy-good UI. Failed because I kept polishing instead of finishing the thing.
NextFlow
Krea-style AI workflow builder that worked in dev and even had a live preview, but I got sick while building it and never took it through to real production.
OnlyPngs
Autonomous NFT trading agent on Avalanche using Gemini 1.5 Flash. IEEE paper published.
IceBreaker
Conversation app I made after blanking out during a speed date. It got real users fast and ended up being used by 200+ people around the world within a month.
This Site
Building a living lab of experiments. Meta-experiment: can a portfolio be anti-portfolio?
Blog
Next.js blog from scratch with Markdown parsing. Notion-dark aesthetic. Actually ships content.
Quick-Scroll
Chrome extension I built in 2nd year CSE while learning how extensions work. Old project, still real, and it also reached 200+ users.
MotionSplit
Personal video-to-image tool I built because most online converters were low quality, full of ads, or both. This one does the job properly.
FlowDrop
Cross-device sharing tool for text, images, and files. I built it because moving things between Chrome devices over the internet was becoming annoying.
// things that didn't work
Failed experiments.
Learned lessons.
Failure isn't the opposite of success here. It's part of the process. These are the experiments that didn't work out, and what I took from them.

Why I build
like this.
Ideas > Perfection
A rough idea that ships teaches you more than a perfect idea that does not.
Speed > Planning
The plan changes the moment you touch the keyboard. Start faster.
Shipping > Thinking
Thinking is free. Shipping creates feedback. Feedback is what you actually need.
Failure = Data
Every failed experiment tells you something true. That is worth more than never trying.
