NickCarducci/README.md

👋 Hi, I’m Nicholas Matthew Carducci

I'm a civic technologist, independent U.S. Senate candidate (NJ 2026), and graduate software engineering student at Monmouth University. I’m passionate about building public-interest technology and data commons for democratic participation, transparency, and justice.

🧠 What I'm Working On

🇺🇸 Thumbprint Social Calendar

Since 2012, I've been researching, designing, and developing Thumbprint Social Calendar — a voting and streaming platform for:

  • Real-time and archival court cases, elections, and mock referenda
  • Featuring unbiased bill, ordinance, and budget proposal verbiage
  • Designed to promote civic engagement and institutional accountability through structured public feedback

This project is the backbone of my public service campaign and a proof-of-concept for a New Commons based on verified democratic input.

🛡 Guardian Angel App

I’m also working on the Guardian Angel Data Commons, an open-source safety and transparency app proposed to the NewCommons.ai Challenge. It enables secure, collaborative community oversight and real-time alerts for vulnerable environments using:

  • ReactJS + Node.js
  • Firebase & Azure (Entra ID, Firestore, SQL, Functions)
  • SwiftUI & Kotlin for mobile

🎓 Current Studies at Monmouth University (M.S. Software Engineering, ‘26)

Courses Completed:

  • ⚙️ Real-Time Embedded Systems
  • 🤖 Low Code / No Code AI & ML
  • 🧮 Data Structures & Algorithms
  • 🌐 Computer Networks

My academic work focuses on scalable civic platforms, secure edge computing, and intelligent interfaces for ethical tech.

💡 Technical Stack

Languages & Frameworks

  • JavaScript / TypeScript, Node.js, ReactJS
  • SwiftUI, Kotlin (cross-platform mobile)
  • Python (data / backend scripting), C/C++ (embedded)
  • SQL, Firestore, GraphQL

Platforms & Tools

  • Firebase, Azure (SQL, Entra ID, Functions)
  • Digital Ocean Apps, GitHub Actions
  • Unity, Infinigen, and procedural generation tools for simulation

🗳 Why I'm Running for Senate

I'm not just building software—I’m building infrastructure for trust, verification, and collective decision-making. Politics needs technologists who care about the integrity of systems, not just the outcomes. My campaign platform draws from over a decade of independent civic R&D.

“If we can’t verify consent, we can’t claim representation.”
