About Us:

Since we haven’t seen some of you in years, and in some cases you only know one of us, we decided that this would be a good time to tell you a little more about ourselves.


Name: Ruth
Age: 25 years
Height: 5'1.5"

I grew up in Renton Washington about a mile and a half from Todd. (We never met until 6 years ago. It seems pretty strange considering how close we grew up). I attended Seattle University, where I earned my bachelor of science in electrical engineering. While there I met some wonderful friends, and developed an obsession for soccer playing robots. (If you get a chance you should check out the RoboCup competition website. The whole goal of the competition is to create autonomous robots that can effectively play against a human soccer team by 2050). Now, I work at Boeing in Everett on the new 787 doing electrical design. In my free time I like to play video games, read, and play classical guitar.

-Our story according to him-

I grew up in Renton. I attended Highline Community for a year or so, then took some technical training soon after starting IT work at Western States Mortgage. I’ve worked at WSM for just over eight years now. When I’m not at work, I race RC cars (Oh yeah! A hobby that doesn't involve a television), play video games, build websites, watch the UFC, work on the house (takes a lot more time than you'd think), or try and plan the next BBQ/halo party.
