Parcyl.ai
- Owned the agentic task system end-to-end: 11+ ReAct agents running site, market, ownership and comparable-sales studies on any parcel on demand, each personalized to the user's portfolio, uploaded documents, land asset type and prior deals
- Rebuilt the comparable-sales valuation engine, replacing three widening database searches with a single query filtered in memory, and added deduplication and lot-size bounds that grew a property's evidence pool from 12 to 27 comparable parcels
- Built an asynchronous document ingestion pipeline on S3 and BullMQ that converts PDFs, spreadsheets and scanned documents into structured facts, injected into the AI agent's context as claims it must cite}
- Built an autonomous feedback-triage agent that polls for new reports, removes duplicates in three stages (exact match, then similarity scoring, then a model for the ambiguous band), and posts a Slack digest carrying the underlying evidence rather than just a label.

This VEX IQ C++ project implements a professional control system for a robot designed to perform automated object manipulation and lifting tasks. The robot is designed to autonomously pick up trash within a certain area and deposit it in a bin. Built for MTE 100 at the University of Waterloo.
