I designed and developed HarvestCalc, a complete mini-project in Java, applying advanced object-oriented programming principles—classes, methods, abstraction, inheritance, and polymorphism. The project models real-world harvesting scenarios, combining robust architecture with clean, modular code. Through this work, I demonstrated strong analytical thinking and hands-on proficiency in Java, delivering effective, scalable software aligned with industry best practices.

Built multiple fully functional, responsive websites from scratch using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, focusing on clean structure, modern UI design, and smooth user interaction. Implemented mobile-first layouts, custom styling, and component-based page sections to ensure consistency across all screen sizes. Used JavaScript for dynamic features such as interactive menus, form validation, real-time UI updates, and DOM-driven page behavior.

Integrated front-end logic with backend fundamentals (Java) where required, applying OOP principles, data structures, and clean separation of concerns to handle user data and page functionality. Ensured code quality through testing, debugging, and iterative improvements, resulting in polished, fast-loading, user-friendly websites suitable for real-world use.
