Hardik Shrestha
Developer. Sustainability advocate. HBA & CS student.
I turn ambiguous work into sharp products: AI workflow tools, decision surfaces, public demos, and source-backed artifacts that people can actually inspect.
About
I am pursuing a dual degree in Computer Science and Business Administration at Western University and Ivey Business School.
cGPA: 3.9/4.0. Dean's Honour List. Wellington Financial LP Award in Technology Evaluation.
My work sits at the intersection of software, product thinking, AI workflows, finance operations, sustainability, and human review.
Outside the build queue, I study chess, read and write poetry, and train.
Experience
Flagship work
A public-safe decision-support demo that shows how messy healthcare-adjacent context becomes criteria, tradeoffs, and handoff notes without exposing private workflow details.
A least-privilege review surface for agent access, built around request scope, approval state, and human-readable control checks.
Source-only proof for now: built to show why agent permissions need a review trail before teams trust automation.
Educational storytelling game work with product, manufacturing, distribution, and investment signals instead of another software-only demo.
A chess-and-vision project that makes the technical range more obvious: perception, game state, and a domain Hardik actually cares about.
Decision-support interface for constrained review, criteria, and handoff.
AI governance surface for request scope and approval state.
Computer-vision chess work that adds creative technical breadth.
Public-safe climate research methodology and synthetic sentiment demo.
Reproducible reinforcement-learning benchmark work with deterministic proof paths.
Synthetic TWAP/VWAP research package with caveats and tests.
Android-facing data product proof for recurring price checks and public verification.
Privacy-aware fixture preparation and export tooling for safer public demos.
Educational storytelling game with product and go-to-market depth.
Digital product MVP with a public demo surface.
Small interactive web apps bundled as a public collection.
Geospatial demo work with a recorded walkthrough.
Scenario model for cost-mix sensitivity and reviewer-ready operating tradeoffs.
Structured packet assembly for facts, evidence, and response steps.
Useful supporting workflow proof, now correctly demoted from the lead flagship position.
Deployment tradeoff analysis for early-stage cloud decisions.
Transfer-learning image classifier from the legacy project set.
Computer-vision air-painting concept for virtual teaching.
Chrome extension for launching Western student services quickly.
Team-built trading platform project with database and application layers.

Earlier work
This section preserves visual artifacts from the legacy site. The strongest current work lives above; this is here to show range and origin story.
Computer-vision classification project using transfer learning and test coverage to distinguish duck images.
Constraint-solving project from the early algorithm archive, preserved as a clean foundation signal.
Led product development for a digital platform using Angular and AWS, informed by user feedback and club growth.
Sustainability
Spearheading campus initiatives including meal plans forward, waste reduction campaigns, energy audits, and workshops reaching 500+ students.
Facilitating student discussions on growth models, responsibility in sustainable transitions, Indigenous sovereignty, and climate justice.
Led a food-waste solution and presented it directly to a Sustainability Manager and leadership team.
