Project Lead / Full-Stack Developer at AlphaHedge

Developed an AI-driven investment research platform generating structured stock analysis reports in under 2 minutes, built during the Y Combinator Full-Stack Hackathon. Designed a four-agent analysis system (Fundamental, Quantitative, Sentiment, and Judge) where each agent independently evaluates a stock and contributes to a final rating through weighted consensus. Implemented a retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) pipeline using the Google Gemini API to analyze reports, improving retrieval relevance while maintaining persistent conversational context. Improved system performance by reducing API latency by ~35% through asynchronous caching and streaming.

Project Lead / Gesture-Controlled Rhythm Game at SignWave
