The Helios Archive

Live

A curated collection of my favorite things that bring me joy, brought together while discovering the profound possibilities of AI assisted building.

A living 3D knowledge graph connecting mythology, literature, music, and film through thematic and philosophical resonance. Built with React, Three.js, and a custom Express search backend featuring fuzzy query matching, constellation isolation mode, and automated data extraction pipelines.

OpenedShelf

In Development

A semantic search engine for readers who think in tropes rather than taxonomy. It bridges the gap between how librarians catalog and how readers actually talk about books.

A book discovery platform built on the edge with a bespoke taxonomy engine mapping reader slang to formal Library of Congress subject headings across 40 million records. It features rarity optimized querying on Cloudflare D1 to deliver lightning fast search, alongside a progressive “Rabbit Hole” discovery flow that gracefully handles overly constrained queries.

Essential Eats

Live

Built to battle AuDHD mealtime executive dysfunction and navigate a strict dietary matrix of zero gluten, zero dairy, and zero nuts.

An artificial intelligence kitchen assistant that transforms raw grocery receipts into structured inventory using the Gemini API. It dynamically generates chef quality recipes constrained by what is actually in your pantry, running entirely serverless on Cloudflare Workers with Hono and D1, and featuring a recruiter sandbox with rate limiting and prompt caching.

Canada Trade Snapshot

Live

Visualizing Canada’s shifting trade gravity across EU and Indo Pacific markets, transforming 13.4 million rows of raw data into an interactive 3D globe.
