I was hired as a Full-Stack MERN Developer to build a Slack Application along with a Web App. The client provided Figma designs, which I implemented using Ant Design.
Project Highlights:
Developed a basic Slack app that stores user messages in a database.
Integrated ChatGPT API to handle search queries within both the Web UI and Slack interface.
Displayed three concise outputs from the database in a clean Web UI and via automated Slack messages.

District Aquarium: A Living Interface for Complex Systems
District Aquarium reimagines data dashboards as living ecosystems.
Instead of charts and static reports, complex systems are visualized as dynamic environments where data literally breathes. Each student is represented as a fish. Progress affects movement, brightness, and depth. System-wide trends influence water clarity and ecosystem health.
Built entirely in Figma Make, this project explores how metaphor-driven interfaces can transform how we interpret complex information. Originally inspired by education systems, the concept can extend beyond schools. Any organization, product, or team could visualize performance as a reactive ecosystem.

This is a really interesting way to think about data visualization. Turning abstract metrics into a living ecosystem makes complex systems much easier to interpret.
My entry for Figma makeathon @Contra HQ @Figma Most interfaces are designed for calm users. StateShift tests what happens when they’re not.
A cognitive stress-testing tool that reveals how hierarchy, clarity, and trust break under pressure, and how to fix them.
Find the link below and let me know what you think about this concept, I feel this could be a great thing for junior designers to test their designs.
Creating Start Anyway was so much fun!
I’ve been working in Figma for several years, but this was my first time trying out Figma Make, and it really didn’t disappoint.
When developing Start Anyway, I intentionally kept the design very simple, visually and tool-wise, to cut the noise. It's just you and your idea.
If you also hear that little perfectionist voice in your head when starting a project, give Start Anyway a try if you haven’t already:
