Welcome to my personal website. I'm Darren Jennings. You can reach me on twitter, github, or linkedin.

I blog about engineering things, mostly Vue. For hobbies, I like to brew coffee, practice Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, and spend time with my family, nuclear and ecclesiastical.

I'm currently Tech Lead at Kong where I lead frontend architecture, our Vue component library, as well as write cool stuff for our entirely Lua backend built on top of Open Resty.
