She later pursued graduate study at Bank Street College, earning a Master of Science in Child Life in 2003. These studies combined scientific knowledge with creativity, shaping her approach to child development and care.

Her work began during her college years. She first served as a daycare leader and became a caseworker for Talbot Perkins Children’s Services in Brooklyn, where she supported adoption and foster care services. Around the same time, she worked as the Lead Camp Counselor at Epiphany Nursery School Camp, designing creative projects and managing daily classroom activities. These early roles gave her direct experience with children and allowed her to practice leadership, organization, and empathy.

In 1998, she accepted the position of Head Teacher at Trevor Day School in New York City. She managed classroom activities, adapted teaching methods to meet student needs, and worked closely with families to promote learning. After completing her graduate degree, she transitioned into healthcare. At Mt. Sinai Hospital in New York, she became a Child Life Specialist, serving children in pediatric units. She worked with young patients facing serious illnesses such as cancer, asthma, cystic fibrosis, HIV/AIDS, and those undergoing transplants. Her role emphasized therapeutic interventions and family support during hospitalizations.

Her work in child development expanded further at Monmouth Medical Center in New Jersey, where she served as an Early Intervention Developmental Specialist. She conducted developmental assessments for infants and toddlers up to age three, designing interventions that encouraged growth and progress. She also worked closely with families to ensure children received the support they needed. Since 2001, she has been a member of the Child Life Council, maintaining her long-term commitment to the field.

2017 Marissa expanded into health and fitness, completing a Certificate in Fitness and Nutrition from the Academy of Sports Medicine.

I work as a mid-level Software Engineer, focusing primarily on backend development with Python.

In addition to my professional work, I code extensively in my free time: exploring procedural generation, designing video games, diving into computer vision, and automating processes.

With three years of practical experience and a degree in Software Engineering, programming isn't just my career, it's my personal superpower. Python is my trusted companion day in and day out.

Even during holidays, going a week without coding feels like something is missing. For me, coding isn't merely about writing lines of code; it's about solving problems. That's why I see myself as more of a problem-solver and builder enthusiast than just a programmer.
