Hey there, I'm Josh.

A developer and problem solver that is passionate about creating clean, usable, efficient solutions.

ABOUT

Josh Allen

I'm Josh Allen, a Software Developer and Programmer. I started my career in development by teaching myself the basics using informal online courses and videos in order to solve a problem at my then-current job.

This project helped to spark my interest in web development and programming. My employer selected me to take part in a formal coding bootcamp in early 2021, and have been working in development ever since.

When I'm not coding, you can probably find me either listening to music, playing video games, or on the side of a mountain somewhere.

SharePoint Communication Site

During my time with Travelers Insurance, I created a custom internal communications site for Personal Insurance Customer Sales & Service, using Microsoft SharePoint as the foundation. This site was built using vanilla JavaScript, HTML, and CSS. The backend data and images were housed within SharePoint lists, and accessed using the SharePoint JavaScript Object Model APIs.
