Overview

During my externship at Breaking Games, I transformed six disorganized CSV files into a structured analytics database and developed a Q4 dashboard that informs strategic business decisions. Leveraging SQL and Claude, I enhanced data usability and delivery, creating a robust environment for data analysis.

What I've accomplished

I verified six data tables in the supplied breaking_games.db, configured DB Browser as the working environment, and wrote SQL queries that extracted revenue insights from the raw datasets.

Project breakdown

Virus Detection App

Implemented dynamic hashing with linear, quadratic, and double‑hash probing for DNA‑based virus signature detection; designed incremental rehashing, lazy deletion, and load‑factor monitoring; implemented core operations including insertion, search, removal, and ID updates with full unit testing and memory‑safe logic.

C++

Room Safety Analytics Tool

Developed a Python application to analyze environmental sensor data and evaluate room safety conditions; designed rule-based validation to verify AI-generated conclusions and reduce false positives; collaborated with a team during GridHack to build and present a working prototype.

Python

Morse Code Translator Tool

Implemented a Morse code translator using a binary tree structure to map Morse sequences to lowercase English letters; designed traversal logic to decode Morse input by navigating left/right tree branches; added support for English‑to‑Morse translation using string manipulation and Map ADT; engineered prompt pipelines for Vertex AI and integrated model outputs into a functional web interface; deployed the application on Google Cloud and tested/debugged locally via Docker before deploying to the network.
