About
Hi, my name is Brian Mehrman.
I am a software engineer, specializing in web application development. My
background is in Interactive Design and Game Development
. I started off
learning to design games and websites but quickly found a passion for software
development. My current language of choice is Ruby, but one can never know enough
computer languages.

Javascript | 9 |
ActionScript | 6 |

Java | 2 |
C++ | 1 |
I learned a little scripting and coding while in high school, but my real love for programming started in college with game development. Flash, Director, 3d Studio Max, Unreal Engine, and Half-Life Engine, these are where I first used code to do something useful.
After college I picked up Python while building tools for game development at Volition, Inc. While there I also learned C++ and HLSL. I entered the web development industry in the winter of 2011. I worked on a multi tenant web application built in Ruby on Rails.
Ruby was the first language where building object oriented structures can natural to me. With all I have learned over the past decade I find myself still trying to learn more languages and learn new programming concenpts.
This site is here to help document what I have learned, as well as share my projects I am working on.
