About
Emoji Translator is a web app that converts English sentences into emoji sequences. Built with a Python backend using Beautiful Soup to scrape and structure emoji definitions from Unicode data sources into a searchable CSV dataset, paired with a JavaScript frontend that maps words and phrases to their closest emoji match in real time. The translator handles synonyms, common slang, and multi-word expressions to produce surprisingly accurate emoji translations. Originally built as a fun experiment in web scraping and natural language matching, it demonstrates practical use of data extraction pipelines feeding into an interactive UI.

Interactive Times Tables
One of my first Python projects from 2022, built when I was just starting to learn programming. Interactive Times Tables is a command-line game that quizzes you on your times tables, tracks your score, and lets you choose which table to practice. I built it to get comfortable with loops, conditionals, and user input in Python. It lives on GitHub as part of my early python_projects repository - a snapshot of where I started before moving on to web development.
