01 · about

I build software that solves problems I've actually run into: exam integrity tools, personal finance tracking, campus navigation. My focus is on shipping things that work end-to-end, not just prototypes.

Completed a six-month SIWES internship at the National Information Technology Development Agency (NITDA), working across Python development, applied data science, and interface design. Currently finishing my final-year project and looking for internship-level engineering work.

I also run Becoming a Dev, teaching the AI-assisted process I use to turn ideas into working software.

AI-assisted workflow: I use tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and Cursor/Windsurf throughout research, planning, and implementation to build faster and more thoroughly.

.ts eduverify/ shipped Frontend · FastAPI · Firebase

A full-stack smart attendance system that verifies students are actually present, not just that they tapped a button. Requires two independent checks before marking anyone present: facial recognition with liveness detection (Facenet512 + MTCNN via DeepFace) to confirm identity, and GPS verification (Haversine distance calculation) to confirm physical presence in the classroom.

Built full-stack: frontend deployed on Vercel, FastAPI + Python backend running the ML pipeline deployed on Railway, Firebase (Firestore + Auth) for data and authentication
Designed and built solo using an AI-assisted development workflow — from research and planning through implementation and deployment
Live: smart-attendance-web-murex.vercel.app
