Surf Roots, Software Thoughts

A blog by Alex Loddengaard

About

My name is Alex Loddengaard, and I’m a recent Computer Engineering graduate from the University of Washington. I live in San Francisco.  I currently work as a Software Engineer at Cloudera. Prior to Cloudera, I briefly worked as a Software Development Engineer Intern at Google in Shanghai, and prior to that I worked as a Product Manager at Redfin. I’ve also worked as a Teacher’s Assistant for CSE 143 and CSE 190L with Stuart Reges for two years.  I also contributed a chapter to Web Programming Step by Step, which is a text book used at several universities, including the University of Washington.

I’m originally from Palos Verdes in Los Angeles, CA. In my free time I like to see family/friends, surf, snowboard, skateboard, snowmobile, river raft, play guitar, play drums, cycle, program, and cook.

    One of the Google APM scavenger items was to get cuffed by a police officer. I was going to respond with a funnier made-up story, but I thought I would just tell the truth.
