Project Concept

VisionBoard CLI turns your hard drive into a mirror of who you’re becoming: a local-first AI that scans the folders you choose (PDFs, notes, code, images) and instantly builds a living vision board grounded in your actual work—clear themes with evidence tags, future identities with a why, short present-tense affirmations, and tiny action prompts you can do today. It’s evidence-based motivation rather than wishful thinking: show a messy folder, run one command, open a clean HTML board (plus a slick terminal view), and see your path—Quant, Engineer, Musician—snap into focus. Everything stays on your machine. Your files. Your future. Visualized.

Software development, AI technologies, session replay applications, user experience analysis, programming, repository management, innovative technical solutions
Recently built a session replay AI application that captures a user’s experience—everything they see, click, and scroll—and distills it into a concise, insightful summary. This makes it easy for businesses to understand user behavior at scale without sifting through hours of recordings. https://providence-replay.github.io/
