    Activities and Societies: Several activities but most importantly, I've started my own cybersecurity-focused MSP business providing IT managed services to the small business community of San Diego. As I progress through my degree, I'll be attaining industry-recognized certifications as well.

    Studying to complete my bachelor's degree in Cyber-Security. WGU's online bachelor's degree program offers many benefits, but it's most outstanding value is it's adherence to DHS and NSA guidelines which helped it receive the National Center of Academic Excellence in Cyber Defense designation through 2026.

    jQuery is a JavaScript library utilized by a large majority of public-facing websites to facilitate interactivity across a myriad of user interfaces (ex. web browsers) without writing the same functionality for each target UI. At it's time of strongest adoption, jQuery enabled web developers to write code once for animation, interactivity, and data submission/retrieval for different web browsers which implemented said functionality differently. Due to the complexity and vast differences between browsers, bugs were a regular occurrence which I attentively submitted fixes for after ardent testing.
