Hi again, I‘m Zachary.

I'm an Anthropology grad student living in Los Angeles. My academic journey has been driven by a passion for understanding and exploring the realms of Rave, Underground, and Subcultures. These subjects have been at the heart of my research endeavors since my undergraduate years. Currently, my focus lies in crafting my graduate thesis, which involves conducting an ethnographic research into the LA techno community.

In addition to my anthropological pursuits, I started learning UX in 2022. I undertook a certificate program at UCLA Extension, deepening my knowledge and expertise in this field, with a particular penchant for UX Research.

Besides academia and UX, I am a big fan of techno music, sometimes have gigs during the weekend. I used to host many student parties when I was in UCSB, and that was absolutely a big time. This enduring passion for electronic music has consistently driven me to explore subcultures, making it a focal point of my research, from my undergraduate studies to the present day.
