Music

I collect music in both digital and analog formats. My digital collection is about a 1TB and I have a record collection of about 250 records. My collection spans all genres, my favorites being classical, rock, and folk. I am very proud of the collection I have accumulated so far and do not plan to stop anytime soon.

Audio Engineering

Have done personal research on the technicalities of sound such as DACs, ADCs, distortion, gain, speaker impedance, speaker drivers, digital sound file formats/encoding, audio signals (balanced vs single ended), and digital signal processing. I am currently doing some research on vacuum tube transistors as I would like to design and build myself a new tube amplifier.

Photography

In 2012, I had the oportunity to travel to Haiti as a volunteer for a non-profit named Zanmi Lakay. Zanmi Lakay hosted a photojournalism camp for homeless children living in Haiti. My role was to manage the cameras and teach the children how to use the cameras. I also got some one-on-one with a few students to teach them photoshop.

I have also taken photos of the Oakland Occupy marches, a Chinese new year parade, a Cinco de Mayo parade, and Colorodo nature.

I found it amazing the amount of stuff that people could carry on their heads. This was one of the crziest.

Another Jacmel beach. This time the beach is made of garbage instead of sand. This was a major issue throughout Haiti. Many times we would come across large piles of garbage on the street and other it would wash up from the ocean. Unfourtunately, most of the garbage ends up in the ocean.

There was so much garbage that wild pigs and homeless dogs would scavange for food. Most probably lived in it.

More garbage. More dogs.

Haitian people walked through this garbage almost as much as the wild animals.
