About Jay Mcgavren
Jay McGavren was doing automation for a hotel services company when a colleague introduced him to Programming Perl (a.k.a. the Camel Book). It made him an instant Perl convert as he liked actually writing code instead of waiting for a 10-person development team to configure a build system. In 2007 with Perl sputtering Jay was looking for a new interpreted language. With its strong object-orientation excellent library support and incredible flexibility Ruby immediately won him over. He's since used Ruby for two game libraries a generative art project in support of a Java development job and as a Ruby on Rails freelancer. He's been using Rails in the online developer education space since 2011.
