I created a Mobile Detailing Profit Calculator as a self-directed technology project. My role was to design and build a web-based calculator that helps a mobile detailing business estimate profit by entering key information such as service price, supply costs, travel expenses, and labor time. Through this project, I applied my knowledge of HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and basic business analysis to create a tool that is both practical and user-friendly. I learned how technology can support small business decision-making by turning everyday costs and revenue information into clear financial insights. This project also strengthened my problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and ability to connect technical development with real business needs. https://misdemo.temple.edu/tus91458a/project2/

Loan Calculator and DCF Model
This project was part of my Web Development class. It taught me how to leverage my AI prompting knowledge to utilize AI’s technical coding skills and my knowledge of JavaScript to supervise the structure. Calculator Project
Final Project – MIS2402
In my MIS 2402 course at Temple University, I worked on a project where I used AI tools to help build and deploy two web-based calculators. My job was not just to generate the code using an AI chat application, but to actually test it, fix any issues, and get it running on a live web server using Bitvise. The first calculator was a loan repayment tool that figures out monthly payments and total interest based on a loan amount and APR. For the second one, I came up with my own idea and built an Investment Growth Calculator that helps users see how their money can grow over time based on things like monthly contributions and compound interest, which is useful for planning things like retirement or saving for college. Both applications were built using HTML, CSS, JavaScript, jQuery, and Bootstrap, and I had to make sure they handled bad or missing user input without crashing. The biggest thing I took away from this project is that AI can be a really helpful tool for writing code, but you still need to understand what the code is doing well enough to catch mistakes and make it actually work the way it is supposed to.
Special Purpose Calculator
For MIS 2402 at Temple University, I built a Calorie Burn Estimator, an interactive fitness web tool with the goal of helping users calculate how many calories they burn during a workout based on their personal stats and exercise details. Using primarily HTML, JavaScript, and jQuery, I implemented MET based calorie calculations, form validation, and a dynamic results display showing total calories burned, fat burned, and burn rate. The project is live at https://misdemo.temple.edu/tus55084j/project2/. Through this project, I learned how to apply real world fitness formulas in code, build responsive and visually polished UIs, and use jQuery to manage DOM interactions and user feedback effectively.
Web Application Project
At the end of the semester I worked with AI tools to combine what I learned in Web Application Development and the structure of javascript to use AI tools to build an application. The application I built was a specialized calculator specifically to track subscription metrics and calculate spending across different intervals to allow users to see their total spending across subscription platforms. I used the debugging tools that I learned in MIS 2402 to not just let the AI create a solution for me but to also make changes and develop the application in collaboration with the AI agent as a resource rather than letting it do all of the work and not understanding what it did. I used skills like prompt engineering and the coding we practiced in class to successfully finish this project.
Final Project – MIS2402
With this project, I was instructed by my professor, Laurel Miller, to utilize AI in order to create two special-purpose calculators on the web. First, my professor wanted me to use AI to create a Loan Repayment Calculator. Then, she wanted me to come up with another special-purpose calculator to create on my own, and I opted to make a GPA calculator. It was designed to calculate an individual’s new estimated GPA after entering their current GPA, current number of credits completed already, and the grades/credits of the classes they just completed. After completing this project, I gained further knowledge of HTML, JavaScript, and jQuery, as well as how to utilize AI in a way that makes it work with you, rather than for you.
Project
Developed two financial web calculators — a Loan Repayment Calculator and a ROAS (Return on Ad Spend) Calculator — as part of a web development course project. Each application was built in a single HTML file using HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Bootstrap 5, and jQuery. Key features include amortization-based payment calculations, ad spend break-even analysis, dynamic results rendered via jQuery DOM manipulation, and responsive Bootstrap grid layouts with client-side input validation.

Special-Purpose Web Calculator Project
I designed two special purpose web calculators using HTML and JavaScript, with an emphasis on real world usability. The first application was a loan repayment calculator that accurately computes monthly payments while validating user input and handling errors without relying on browser alerts. For the second application, I independently created a light-pollution and night-sky visibility calculator that estimates local Bortle class and illustrates how outdoor lighting contributes to skyglow and energy waste. This project strengthened my skills in JavaScript logic, form validation, UI design, AI-assisted development, reinforcing the importance of building tools that translate technical work into meaningful, real world insight.
Final Project – MIS2402
This project was completed as part of my web development coursework and was sponsored by my professor. The goal of the assignment was to help students apply their knowledge of HTML and JavaScript while also learning how to responsibly use AI tools to support software development. My role in this project was to design, test, and refine two special-purpose web applications using AI-generated code as a starting point. One of my applications was a final exam grade calculator that allows students to enter their current average, the weight of their final exam, and their desired final grade to determine the minimum score needed on the final. Through this project, I learned how to effectively prompt AI tools, evaluate and modify generated code, and ensure the application was accurate and user-friendly. I also gained a better understanding of how web applications can solve real-world problems for students by providing clear, practical information that helps reduce stress and support better academic planning.
