Projects

JSON Resume using LinkedIn

Customized a chrome extension to parse data from a LinkedIn profile, generate a custom JSON file, transform the data using a Python script, and build an online resume (hosted on Firebase). Developed and packaged multiple themes on NPM and GitHub Registry. Also created a subdomain name to point to this Firebase function.

Developed a website using a static-site generator, Hugo, and a custom domain name for my personal brand. It's deployed and hosted on Firebase & GitHub. It's integrated with my JSON resume project, so you can select a theme and view my resume.

Automated Job Scraping
