About Damiam Alfaro

Who am I?


That's a tough question to respond, especially because one changes continously via learning, experimenting, trying, rumminating, creating, and any other verb that alludes to what we call Living. As the famous and accurate quote states:


"No man ever steps in the same river twice, for it's not the same river and he's not the same man."
Heraclitus

The only way one may truly answer that question accurately is after one's demise. Which produces its own difficulties since one will not be around to describe oneself then, and the remaining answers will be polluted by the subjectivity of those people providing them. However, it is after one's demise when one stops changing. Besides, even if I approach an answer to such question, I will be inevitably neglecting the perspective(s) of other people, which, whether one likes it or not, are a minimal part of what one trully is since the idea of oneself is not utterly the reality of oneself. But if you really desire an answer from me: I consider myself a human who is expressing and materializing its idiosyncrasy with the use of the the continents (human expertises) described at the beginning of this website.

Publicly speaking, there are certain accustomed labels that we as a collective society tend to use to describe oneself to others (erroneously, since those labes encapsulate oneself, which compels oneself to be a slave of the pursuit for the embellishment of such labels, instead of creating new labels, or follow a set of labels that one is motivated for, and not the ones that are valued by the majority). Alma Mater: University of California - Davis between 2019-2022. In college I studied for a B.S. in Computer Science although I immersed into many diverse academic fields during my undergrad years, ranging from Humanities and Social Sciences such as Archeology, Anthropology, and Psychology, to the Natural Sciences such as Geology, Marine Biology, and Genetics. What can I say... I enjoy and immerse in every aspect of Knowledge that I can grasp. Professionally speaking, I contribute to the contemporary society I find myself in as a Construction Project Manager/Estimator/Engineer in San Diego, CA, where I was born.

However, in my opinion, the best way to know oneself and portray oneself to the world is by creating. The materialization of one's ideas provide insight to one's creative and cognitive processes, as well as one's psyche. Therefore, if you want to know me, see my creations.
