Welcome to my digital garden, a space that merges my Personal Blog with my Personal Knowledge Management system. Expect a dynamic collection of opinions, drafts, raw notes, and ramblings.

If you’re interested in my professional work, my portfolio at jbaena.net offers an orderly repository of projects, primarily focused on Humanitarian Work, Data Analysis, and AI. This blog, in contrast, reveals the day-to-day process and thinking behind that work.


1. POSTs

A general collection of my self-contained thoughts, spanning a wide variety of topics and categories.

2. TECH

A repository of technical notes and reminders about the tools I use. You might find a helpful tutorial or solution for a problem you’re facing.

3. PROJECTS

Follow the development of my current projects here. You can find the finished work at jbaena.net, but this is where I share the inner workings and processes for you to explore and adapt.

4. INTERNET

This section serves as my personal dashboard for tracking and consolidating my online presence.


This blog is a natural extension of my daily work within Obsidian. Since I already use it constantly, this site is just a curated window into my private knowledge vault. The unique clunkiness, block-based feel of this space is a direct result of the Obsidian interface it’s built upon.
