About me

Gender Male
Industry Education
Occupation Associate Professor of Spanish
Location DeKalb, IL, United States
Introduction Born in Guatemala, living in the US almost continually since 1988, with brief intervals abroad (Spain, France, Guatemala) in 1994 and between 1998 and 2000. Only seven years ago I returned to photography after finishing my studies and getting a job at a nice, large university in which most faculty members have some type of creative hobby. Not being a professional, I can experiment and have fun, knowing I'll always go back to my reliable day job.
Interests Photography, cats, mysteries, the unexplained, food, literature, guitars
Favorite Movies Exodus, the Indiana Jones series, The X-Files, Inherit the Wind, To Kill a Mockingbird, Nueve reinas.
Favorite Music Classical (Bach, Brahms, Mozart, Schnittke) and some old rock (Journey, Fleeetwood Mac). In short, too much to list.
Favorite Books Usually the last I've read, although I enjoy anything written by Alejo Carpentier.
