Things I'm currently working on.
UIUC Past Exam Archives
Created a web platform that compiles and organizes publicly available past exams from UIUC courses. Designed a clean, user-friendly interface that allows students to easily find and access exams by course and semester. This project improves accessibility to academic resources and supports more effective exam preparation for the UIUC community.
