Life Advantages, LLC

I began my employment at Life Advantages in March of 2022, providing web development services using Javascript, CSS, and HTML/XML. I've since increased my responsibilities to becoming the resident digital accessibility subject matter expert. Also being a crucial member of the team, building and maintaining a multi-tenant member facing web portal, and an admin/client facing content and resource management platform for managing clients, their websites, programs, groups, and users. We leverage many technologies to accomplish the most robust, reliable experience possible, including Laravel, Livewire, AWS services, among many others.

Forward Design Engineering

At Forward Design, I was responsible for the development, manufacturing, technical support, and research collection of multiple projects including: USF and NASA's collaborative Organic Processing Assembly (OPA) and Suspended Aerobic Membrane Bioreactor (SAMBR) systems.

I was also a key team member in the development and technical support of the Nutrient, Energy, and Water Generator (NEWGEN), a system for treating and recycling wastewater while also extracting nutrients and energy from the process. This technology was featured on The Daily Show, and has helped many communities around the world.
