I am a Colombian-American Software Engineer based in Brooklyn, NY. I have over 10 years of experience in Big Tech, see my resumé.
☕ Coffee#
Having been raised in Colombia, and living in New York after the Third Wave of Coffee in the US, I am unavoidably addicted to coffee.
I love making espresso-based drinks (lattes and capuccinos, mainly), and I dabble in pourovers
My kit stars the following:
- Espresso Machine: Lucca A53 Mini V2 by La Spaziale
- Grinder: Eureka Mignon Oro Single Dose
- V60 Pourover
📷 Photography#
I love Photography, but I haven’t kept up with the hobby as much as I could. Currently I use three devices, in order of most-frequently used:
- iPhone 15 Pro
- Fujifilm X100F (sometimes with a wide angle adapter)
- Ricoh GR III Street Edition
💬 Languages#
I am passionate about languages and I would dedicate my life to learning them if I didn’t have to work 😓. I have studied several languages to different extents:
- Colombian Spanish (native, duh)
- English (fluent)
- Brazilian Portuguese (fluent)
- French (some conversational)
- Japanese (I can ask where the train station is!)
- Korean (Can read it slowly, and I know some, but it’s fading away)
- Mandarin Chinese (My pronunciation is fully gone, I can understand a few characters here and there but have no idea how to pronounce them)
