Time Person of the Year 2006|Having gained an interest in the world of blockchain and crypto during the initial boom in late 2017, I decided to invest in some of the technologies during their early stages.

Project EVA (Electric Vehicle Articles) is a web application driven by a large electric vehicle dataset of over 9000 documents.

I wanted to get involved on a personal project and since I own an Amazon Echo, I created an Alexa skill. The skill itself is very basic and simply iterates a basic array of facts that I found.
