Meetup: Urban Edge

  • 16 November 2014
  • MIT
A few weeks ago I helped organize a Meetup shoot. Sadly I spent more time organizing and helping other photographers than I did getting my own shots. The 13 shots below are the only evidence I have of a 3 hour event! They were all captured in the last 10...

Pirouette

  • 3 February 2014
  • MIT
On Saturday the MIT Club of Boston held its annual skating party. Here is a GIF I made from a short burst of images shot during the event. This marks my first time using Photoshop CS6’s animation/timeline functionality. Creating this was rather simple with the aid of a nice tutorial....

Kristin & Jamon

  • 22 October 2012
  • MIT
I had the pleasure of photographing my friends, and fellow MIT alumni, Kristin and Jamon. They have been together since meeting at our dorm, New House. It was great to catch up and joke with them throughout the shoot which, being at MIT, got nerdy at times.

  • 3 August 2011
  • MIT
This Sunday I had the opportunity to work with my friend Shuhan on a shoot at MIT. Sitting on the banks of the Charles River, the MIT campus offers a wide variety of scenery, locations, and lighting conditions ranging from river-front to large corridors to large sunlit windows. It was...

New Beginnings

I am back from Ghana. You can find pictures on Flickr. I had a great time and especially enjoyed meeting the D-Lab community partners and working in the villages. Once again I was pointed out as the IT guru and helped out with a few computer issues. The administrator of...

All Done

  • 17 December 2008
  • MIT
This has been an amazing semester. I have enjoyed my selection of classes, worked on some amazing projects, and had a wonderful time doing it all. A few months ago, I never thought I would make the following statement: I am going to miss this place. I will miss the...

I Got Hit by a Car

  • 19 November 2008
  • MIT
It’s time for my annual injury update. Today I was hit by a car. I’m okay, although my my right leg hurts. Most importantly, my laptop and cell phone survived. The only casualty was the yogurt in my backpack and the windshield of the Saturn that hit me. Besides being...

IHTFP

  • 29 October 2008
  • MIT
I just realized that no one knows what I am doing these days. Before the pumpkin carving post, my last writing was toward the end of last semester. Many months have passed with no updates. Well, let’s fix that. This summer I returned to DLP at Texas Instruments where I...

Senior Ball

  • 6 May 2008
  • MIT
I went, I saw, I left. That pretty much describes my experience at Senior Ball. Basically it was just a bunch of my classmates standing around dancing, drinking, and talking. I can’t believe I paid $30 for that (on top of the $120 tuxedo rental). Perhaps I am an anomaly...

IronNerd II

  • 3 May 2008
  • MIT
I am back in my dorm room recovering after completing the IronNerd for a second consecutive year. The event was similar to last year; although, my performance was a bit worse: I was nearly 2 minutes slower this year than last. To be fair, it was much colder and raining...

A Spin and a Slide

  • 11 February 2008
  • MIT
I had to pickup food for a BSU meeting so I rented a car from Zipcar. I drove a Cooper MINI and I must say that is a cool car. As its name implies it’s a small car, but what it lacks in physical size it makes up for in...

  • 1 December 2007
  • MIT
I doubt anyone knows this, but I am currently in Reno, Nevada interviewing with International Gaming Technology (IGT). IGT currently owns about 60-70% of the global gaming market which is primarily slot machines.

New York City!

  • 27 October 2007
  • MIT
I returned from New York City around 10 PM last night quite tired. I did not get much time to see the city, so I have no pictures. I had 5 interviews with Capital IQ that lasted pretty much all day from 10 AM to 3 PM. I was originally...

IronNerd

  • 5 May 2007
  • MIT
I am officially an IronNerd! What’s that you ask? Well, to promote Wellness Week here at MIT, the Undergraduate Association sponsored the IronNerd competition. IronNerd is a triathlon: swimming (200 yards), biking (3 miles), running (1.1 miles). I’m no athlete, so I just competed to prove to myself that I...

Elvis & Piano Drop

  • 27 April 2007
  • MIT
Now that I’m moving from Dallas for the summer, I finally get to face what most interns face: finding housing. In Dallas, it was easy; I stayed at my own home and drove my own car. Now, I have to deal with apartments and car rentals which is not that...

Knife Flight

  • 19 April 2007
  • MIT
I was in Dallas this past weekend and Monday and Tuesday. Unfortunately my flights to and from Dallas were delayed by the storms. I spent about 3 hours on Friday and Tuesday sitting on taxiways. On Friday there were no gates at which to disembark. Tuesday, we had to wait...

Randall Pinkett was here at MIT on Thursday. I received a signed copy of his book and a picture. The pictures are online here. Also, I forgot to mention that during spring break in Dallas, my brother got the crazy idea to travel the entirety of Beltline Road in Dallas....

Spring Break

  • 5 April 2007
  • MIT
It has been nearly a whole month since I have written to this blog, and so much has occurred. Spring Break was great! I was at home in Dallas for a few days before flying back to Boston, then Columbus, Ohio for the 33rd Annual National Society of Black Engineers...

I Hate Drunk People

  • 11 March 2007
  • MIT
So, my earphones stopped working last week. It has happened before so I exchanged them. Well, the new ones had the same problem, only sooner. Never buy Philips-Nike earphones; they’re completely unreliable. I upgraded to the Shure E2c earphones. They’re pretty cool, but I could never use them for everyday...

This semester sucks!

  • 27 February 2007
  • MIT
For the past 13 hours, I have been locked in my room working. During this time, I have implemented a navigation system, providing turn-by-turn directions and designed a tag storage system. The navigation system works, but, even if it could be implemented, the tag system would definitely blow something up;...

Boxing with Rich Templeton

  • 12 February 2007
  • MIT
So I went boxing yesterday, but not with Rich Templeton. I saw an advertisement for a free workout session at a gym, Ring Boxing Club (https://www.ringboxingclub.com/), and decided to check it out. It was a great experience; I worked out for over an hour, and, of course, I’ve been in...

Kick Boxing

  • 16 November 2006
  • MIT
I just returned from kick boxing. I wasn’t really expecting much, maybe some sparring, nothing too intense. I was WRONG! The instructor ran late, so he jogs in, throws his bag in a corner, and immediately has us doing jumping jacks; jumping jacks and a push-up; next jumping jacks, a...

I attended NSBE’s Fall Regional Conference in Buffalo, NY this weekend and I must say I had a great time! Ourchapter won 1st and 3rd (unofficially) place in the Academic Tech Bowl (ATB) events; our two teams were Hustle and Flow. Hustle, unfortunately, was bustled by Columbia in the semi-finals,...
