Personal

When I'm not working, you can find me engaged in one of a number of my other passions (described in varying detail below for your perusal). Always happy to chat with fellow or budding enthusiasts (or those with just a passing interest)!

Photography

"There is only you and your camera. The limitations in your photography are in yourself, for what we see is what we are." ~Enrst Hass


I have been an avid photographer since college, where I served as a Staff Photographer and Assistant Photo Editor of the Massachusetts Daily Collegian. In my time with the Collegian I covered a myriad of events from lectures to protests, but became particularly fond of covering UMass Athletics. I also wrote exactly one article. Now, I continue to hone my photography skills with everything from trips abroad to wlaks in the local park. I find photographyer to be the perfect blend of technical and artisitc, simultaneously engaging my brain and giving it a respite from its nromal tasks. In addition to digital photography, I have recently begun experimetning with 35mm film.

Keyboards

With more time in the home office during the pandemic, I began exploring mechanical keyboards (and learning to solder). After my first build, a pretty basic 65% with MX red switches and GMK Nightrunner clones, I was hooked. I became intrigued by the different customization options and began experimenting with different board sizes, layouts, and switch types. I have since built several more boards (both for myself and others), including challenging myself with a through-hole board called the Mercutio.

I currently perfer a 40% form factor with tactile or clicky (when working from home) switches. My daily drivers are both Plancks, one with boba u4 switches (and blank key caps) and the other with Kailh box pale blue switches.
