Ruben Alanis

I was born, raised, and still live in the Seattle area. Let's just say I have no plans to move, ever. This place is amazing.

I believe that faith and family are the most important things a person can have. I'm learning that working hard is critical and can help make you "successful", but living fully in as many moments as possible is the only way to be happy. Getting new gadgets doesn't hurt either.

I'm a lover of technology, especially mobile tech. One of the most difficult decisions I face every morning is figuring out which of my many smart phones is worthy of my SIM card for that day.

If I'm not busy being a dad, I'm probably exercising, skiing, playing soccer, or at a Seattle Sounders FC match. Chances are I'm also on Twitter at the same time as any one of the aforementioned activities.

I'm always interested in making new connections and learning from other people.
