About

personal

I have affirmations and goals. I have a travel blog that I have forgotten to maitain.

I love husband hugs and smiles, family, friends, food, learning, video games, books, dystopian sci-fi, rock climbing (but quit), feeling spent after a good run workout, writing things down, (failing at) learning Japanese

I like religion and moral philosophy, social justice, travel, board games, photography, piano, Markdown, spinning, weight-lifting

I make myself run, sleep, learn Spanish, play piano

I'm proud that I have a lot of people who love me, and I am fully self-taught in software development (no school or bootcamp), Spanish, photography. Also, I have run a 10k and 5k in one day, 5 ten-milers, and 2 half-marathons in 5 years.

I can't get myself to run a marathon, but we'll see
