Christian was born and raised in Caracas, Venezuela. When he graduated high school he initially wanted to do something related to Media and he never seriously considered pursuing a career in anything like CS since back then he couldn’t program a potato to grow mold, much less a computer (plus he kind of really hated math). So the truth is that he came to Berkeley wanting to be a filmmaker or something but then he took CS10 and was fooled…I mean hooked; he is now one of the many proud masochists trying to graduate with a Computer Science degree from Berkeley, go him, right? All jokes aside CS is a really amazing field and CS10 is definitely the best place to get started, and I’m not getting payed to say that…Well I guess I do work for CS10 but that’s beyond the point.
Free time…HA! Christian takes great pleasure in browsing Youtube and Netflix in medically-irresponsible positions. He also really likes learning languages; so far he speaks English, Spanish and Italian. He says he’s also learning Mandarin and Portuguese so if you speak any of these, please do check to see if it’s true.
