About me

image101

Brazilian born American Citizen

From Minas Gerais, a large inland state in southeastern Brazil, is known for colonial-era towns dating to the country’s 18th-century gold rush.



My background 

Hello, my name is Marcelo Almeida and I define myself as an Apple specialist, immigrant, and 501st volunteer Stormtrooper.  

My intellectual and personal life has been an eclectic road weaving through the challenges of being an immigrant in the United State & an electrifying journey of personal growth.


My hobbies

Cosplaying allows me to create elaborate costumes and props with my best friend. Making other people smile in cons is an amazing feeling. 

I'm an avid motorcycle rider and I like to work on my old 007 vintage bike.


My favorite things

Volunteering. Teaching and working with computers is gratifying but pales in comparison to the power of volunteering. 

To support others, to bond with different communities, to contribute is a way to improve our world.
