Hi! My name is Brian Byers and I am a Web Developer. I'm originally from Austin, Texas. After moving around the US working at airports, I landed in Denver. This is where my interest in development led me to a Web Development Immersive course at General Assembly.
I really enjoy creative problem solving, and development has been a great outlet for that. I enjoy hiking, board games, and cooking for friends and family.

A digital recreation of Codenames, a board game I play regularly. This game requires secret information to be kept by 2 players whose job it is to get their teams to correctly guess it on the game board. To accomplish this without a back end, I had to create a random seed in JavaScript capable of generating 50 random numbers.
