Worked on several projects including:

  • Qatra: A platform that connects those who are in need of blood units in Jordan with potential blood donors. It allows users to register by inputting their blood type and place of residence. Once users register, they will receive notifications when local and nearby hospitals request blood units similar to theirs.

  • Past Code: An app that helps international students find supporting exam papers using their phone camera. Specific patterns are extracted from images to match their document with supporting papers. As of January 2022, over 500,000 papers from 64 different countries were scanned on Past Code.
