" summary

Claim: practical Rails work solves family problems. Built a Rails birthday app that uses WebRTC via Vonage/Twilio to create watch‑party video rooms so kids still celebrate — it works and kids enjoy it. Built and published a school_declare gem that web‑scrapes the ministry form, fills daily health declarations, runs as a GitHub Actions cron and sends SMS confirmations, eliminating missed‑form calls and trimming morning friction.
