Built Canvas Relay, a full-stack digital signage platform that lets businesses design, publish, and remotely manage content across TVs and displays. I handled the product design, frontend and backend development, authentication, billing, device playback, and deployment across web, Raspberry Pi, Roku, and Android TV.

A few things we’ve been working on this month.
Different industries, different problems, but the same goal: making complex products feel simple, clear, and trustworthy.
Fintech → Investment Banking → Geospatial AI
More projects are still in progress.
Full case studies coming soon.
This is the kind of work I enjoy seeing — simple, focused, and actually thought through.
A three-card tarot spread where every face is unique procedural sigil-art, woven into one reading.
I built this project to test a three-card tarot spread where every face is unique procedural sigil-art, woven into one reading. The goal was simple: push interactive browser rendering using HTML5 Canvas and see how smoothly the system responds to direct user interaction.
WHAT I WAS TESTING:
I wanted to focus on two core engineering aspects:
Procedural generation of unique runic card sigils from mathematical formulas
Dynamic typography and card flipping choreography without heavy 3D frameworks
THE TECHNICAL SIDE:
The card faces render directly onto an HTML5 Canvas using polar coordinate trigonometric curves and procedural geometry. Every draw call is computed dynamically without image textures or external SVGs.
Everything runs in the browser using HTML5 Canvas, Procedural Sigil Geometry, Seeded Randomness. No plugins, no heavy dependencies, and no external tracking.
WHAT I LEARNED:
Balancing procedural symmetry with organic irregularity was the main hurdle. Pure mathematical curves looked too synthetic, so adding minor pseudo-random offsets gave the sigils their handcrafted appearance.
Finding the sweet spot between mathematical precision and tactile visual feedback took several iterations, but the end result runs consistently at 60 FPS.
TRY IT YOURSELF:
The live experiment is deployed on Netlify. You can open it in any modern browser, interact with the controls, and test the response times.
