Brian Rivera

Brian's dual passions for technology and adventure were sparked during a college internship installing weather monitoring systems along the California coast. After witnessing how traditional textile makers in Oaxaca used weather patterns to inform their craft during a post-graduation trip, he began documenting the intersection of traditional knowledge and modern technology. Now he travels seeking maker communities and adventure sports destinations, using his network engineering skills to help local artisans and athletes connect with global markets while preserving their traditions.
