My Work

About me

Senior Software Engineer | Cybersecurity Student

I currently work as a Senior Content Engineer at Marriott Vacations Worldwide, where I manage enterprise-scale content systems across platforms including WordPress and Jahia. I’m also on track to complete a B.S. in Cybersecurity and Information Assurance by Q4 2026, with a growing focus on offensive security through hands-on labs, CTF platforms like Hack The Box, and real-world attack simulation environments.

As an engineer, I specialize in building custom solutions tailored to drive business success. My skills span front-end and back-end development, including expertise in JavaScript, React.js, Node.js, and scalable architectures. I've had the privilege of contributing to diverse projects—from dynamic web applications to enterprise-grade eCommerce platforms—through my work with companies like Encentiv Energy and my freelance ventures.
