The skincare industry is a lucrative business, commanding significant margins on products and services. Our team wanted to be a part of the hottest trends in Beauty Tech. We knew the POC was self-evident, and it was just a matter of time that an app like this will gain traction.

I was responsible for coding the home, features, authentication, login, registration, and profile setting pages. I also helped code the navigation and animation effects. The project timeline was 12 weeks, but actual development commenced in the 5th week when designers handed off their mock-ups to us. Overall, the developers worked very well together, as we made sure to communicate and ensure our repository was maintained systematically.

Sommelier’s Corner – this individual project involved the MERN stack. I designed and developed the user interface, API, and Mongo database set-up. I managed to complete the first iteration of this project from start to finish in ten days.

Brief Introduction

Every programmer needs a moment to just take their eyes off the screen, lean back, relax, and enjoy a nice glass of wine.

My simple application allows users to create a wine preference profile and search recommended wines based on the grape variety they like. Users can add the wines to their cellar and save them to their profile. As a subsequent iteration, I would like to display the profile with the saved wine list and add more functionalities, like modifying, adding, and removing the wines; searching recommendations based on criteria; and pairing wines with different cuisines.


The application is very straightforward and requires no tutorial at all as it is basically self-explanatory. Just fill out the form, submit it, and your profile will be displayed. Then, you can select a grape variety from the dropdown menu and the application will list 4 recommended wines. You can add the wines to your cellar and once you have decided on your wine list, you can save it to your profile.
