Hello everybody and welcome to my spot on the web. Here is
where I put my inner geek to work and present my Art, Photography
and Design & Architecture work to the world
I am an associate project manager at an architecture office in
Manhattan, but did an dual degree program with Philosophy at RPI.I
have so many interests & hobbies that there are simply not
enough hours in the day to do all I would like to do. A life-long
athlete with Martial Arts training as the basis of all my
competitive pursuits, and I have also played almost every team
sport. But I also enjoy watching and attending sporting events,
with a borderline addiction to the NBA: there is nothing like the
sound of that leather ball hitting the hardwood of the court.
I love traveling and experiencing other countries and cultures. I
indulge in my love of photography during my travels and can barely
keep up with managing dozens of gigabytes of pics from just the
last 5 years! But my love for photography actually started as a
child, when I started photographing Bullfights in my hometown of
Tijuana: and i still have hundreds of 35mm film negatives and
prints from those days that I hope to someday convert to
digital.... if i ever find the time.
I am lucky enough to have a large group of friends that enrich my
file every day.
I currently live in Brooklyn and have been in NYC for almost 6
years, after spending the first 5 years after college in Detroit,
MI, but I was born in California, grew up in Mexico and attended
college in ‘upstate’ New York: like i said, I like to travel!
One of my friends has called me ‘opinionated’ a few times before,
but I like to believe that I just have a handful of topics that I
have strong opinions on and that I am generally opening minded. I
guess the jury is still out on that.
I have over 12 years of experience working in 3 architecture
firms in California, Michigan & NYC.
I Begun painting 5 years ago, read my blog for more on ths this
new journey!
This is where you will soon find a host of photo albums from all
the places around the world where i have been lucky enough to
travel to in the last few years!
