- I independently designed and developed a modular AI testing and governance dashboard during a three-month industry project with Elementz, acting as the sole student developer with support from two company contacts.
- The platform, built using Python/Flask and React, evaluated the performance and reliability of three large language model integrations, each tested on over 10,000 evaluation questions.
- It continuously monitored key metrics, including accuracy, latency, hallucination rate, scalability, cost efficiency, and security.
- The system was engineered for extensibility, enabling seamless expansion to additional models, metrics, and deployment environments.

Projects
I’ve worked on a range of projects that blend industry experience, AI development, and creative problem‑solving. One of my biggest pieces of work was collaborating with a local company as a junior developer to design and build a full Testing and Governance Framework for AI integrations, which is now showcased at https://www.aidashboard.co.uk/.
Alongside this, I created a standalone gemini API class to give students a simple way to experiment with Google’s Gemini models in their own workflows. , and the project is available at https://github.com/Jappo27/geminiAPI-Class
Outside of industry projects, I stay hands‑on with creative development through game jams. In one event, I placed first while leading the UI implementation and designing all the visual assets, and the project is available at https://github.com/Jappo27/GameJam.
