What I Do
Photography
As the former Executive Officer for Promotions and Documentation of UP Iris—a university-wide student organization—I received and conducted training in the art of storytelling through photography. Today, I continue to draw inspiration and learnings from established photographers, both foreign and local, in order to hone my own craft. I mainly focus on concert and portrait photography. However, I do like to be well-rounded, and I don't mind venturing into street, landscape, and product photography every once in a while.

Software Engineering
I am a full-time software engineer and certified as a Microsoft Azure AI Engineer and Google Professional Cloud Architect. Python and TypeScript are my primary development languages, and my go-to stack is Django + React. Outside of work, I like to explore other technologies (this website is written in Astro + Svelte!). Some of my work involves architecting and developing cloud solutions, web applications, data platforms, APIs, command-line interfaces, and chat bots, among others.

For my undergraduate thesis, I joined the Instrumentation Physics Laboratory-Video & Image Processing subgroup. My research was initially on blood spatter analysis (BPA). Due to limited equipment, I was tasked to find a way to extract useful information from possibly incomplete measurements. This led me to the field of compressive sensing (CS), which became my main field of research. In this endeavor, I utilized various technologies such as established signal processing techniques, as well as more contemporary machine learning and artificial intelligence approaches.
