Tommy Mertell

I am a Freelance Developer with more than 10 years of experience, having started in Web Development when MySpace was still popular and 2D graphics were the kings of free gaming. I am also an Author of a few novels and a Ghost Writer for more novels than I can account for. From developing websites to making video games, there's not a coding object that I haven't done before. I have worked with Victor Bastos on his OnClick Academy platform and am CTO of the SQRent start-up, a platform that believes experience is more important than just a fancy piece of paper. I participate on CodeEval for fun, when I'm not working or helping others with web development. I came on Udemy to provide a way for others to seek out my help and I very much enjoy helping others, because, occasionally, there's a challenge in it for myself.As a freelance writer on Elance, I'm raved and praised about for my speed, intuitiveness, and quality. I have a 4.9 rating and have worked with hundreds of clients on projects ranging from The Theoretical Design of Biomedical Psychology to The Difference Between English and American Bulldogs. I have been interviewed by Elance as one of the most prominent freelancers on Elance several times, given several writing awards over the years, and have proven time-and-again that Colleges are an outdated and dying form of education. I tend to quickly learn anything that I get my hands on, from writing movie scripts to developing Node(js) chat boxes for secure and private communications using a 256-bit Encryption connection. I've decided to leave the industry of freelance writing and fully immerse myself in the market for web development. With more than a decade of experience in Web Development, I believe it is my responsibility to help usher in new developers and help them understand both the history and process of web development.
