About Me

Hi I am Mike Bromberek. I have worked at Caterpillar as an IT Analyst for 17 years. During my time I have supported different warehouse and transportation systems and written programs in COBOL and Java to work with those systems. Currently I focus on integrating data from different systems into Data Warehouses running in Oracle and Snowflake.

I have been learning Python and Flask for the last few years. I have built APIs for storing and updating my workouts in a database. And then a web page to view and edit the workouts.

I love running! I have run 10 Marathons with my fastest time being 3 hours 19 minutes and 10 seconds. I recently ran the Philadelphia Marathon this past November.

My cat Pixel

Pixel took over my house in October 2016.

The vet said Pixel's hips were out of alignment from an accident but had healed so he is not in pain but will not be able to jump as much. I thought that meant I would not have to worry about him jumping on tables and things, that lasted a week.
