Disciplined leader with 10+ years across corrections, production management, and operations — now building a career in web development and technology. Known for tactical thinking, conflict resolution, and getting things done.
Who I am
Mentally
tough.
Tech
driven.
I'm a former Corrections Officer and Operations Manager who has spent over a decade leading teams, managing crises, and keeping complex systems running. My record speaks for itself: promoted to adviser and manager roles in nearly every organization I've worked in.
Now I'm channeling that same discipline and problem-solving instinct into web development and technology — a field I've been passionate about for years. I'm semi-fluent in Spanish, deeply knowledgeable in PC hardware, and genuinely excited to build things that matter.

Designed and built from scratch to showcase my transition into web development. Features a custom cursor, scroll-triggered animations, an animated skill bar section, a working contact form powered by Resend, and a fully responsive layout. Every component is a standalone TypeScript module.
