Founder & Product Owner — Personal Project · 2026
A gamified platform for practicing the aptitude tests used in hiring (SHL, Korn Ferry–style formats), with games for attention, working memory, speed, and logic. Built end to end with AI-assisted development, using Supabase for backend, auth, and data storage. SEO work grew it to 37 registered users.
Full Game Design Document — Dream Games Case Study · 2026
Played and analyzed Royal Match and Toon Blast across seven categories (mechanics, level design, difficulty, graphics, animation, effects, UI), quantifying hidden difficulty levers like effective-hit-per-move ratios and move-margin curves. Used those findings to design an original tap-to-blast game from scratch, Paws & Petals Pet Café, complete with its own match elements, power-ups, obstacles, meta-game economy, and UI wireframes.
Game Data Analysis — Interview Prep · 2026
Reviewed gameplay footage of a mobile puzzle game's first 25 levels and derived seven ratio metrics from their raw design parameters to prepare for a game studio interview, then used correlation analysis to flag which metrics were redundant and pin down where the "Hard" difficulty label actually comes from.
