About the Running Geek

I’m a software engineer located in the beautiful Pacific Northwest in the US. If you couldn’t guess from the blog title, I’m also very passionate about running. If I’m not at a desk, I’m usually working out, outside in the yard, or walking my dogs.

On the geek side, I tend to do a lot of work with PHP and in particular the framework Laravel. My strengths are more front end though. I love the thrill of mimicking a design mock up. I’ve been told I do it very well. I use a lot of SASS and jQuery. I’m starting to branch out into other JS like Vue. I want to learn React also. I just recently became AWS Cloud certified.

I tend to be a workout nut. If I could all the time, I’d just run. Age is being a twit and making me branch out. Mainly back issues. So if I’m not running, I’m biking or trying to build up strength somehow.

I am recently married though I’ve been with my now husband for nearly a decade now so it wasn’t anything crazy new. We have two dogs. Both crazy and I have lots of photos of them. One is a coonhound mix named Roxie (aka. Roxie May or Roxie “Always-in-the-way”) and a Great Dane Shepard mix named Kai (aka. Kaiju) who is seriously loud when she wants to be.
