about meand what i do
My name is Josh, and I’ll have to start off by saying I’m a huge geek first and foremost. I love technology. I was lucky to grow up with it and it always peaked my interest since I was little. Back then we had Windows 3.0 on the home computer and I learned my way around the command prompt or DOS as it was known back then. Nobody had any idea that over the next few years many homes across America were going to be online. After a few years later I found myself with some heavy social engineering skills and started learning how to program in QBasic. Around the same time I started getting online and I started learning from there. I was about 12 yrs old when I found out how to right-click and “View Source”. I took it upon myself to learn what HTML really was and how it worked.
Before I knew it, I was designing my own basic HTML webpages and even some with Java Applets in them, and I would host them wherever I could get free hosting at. Those were the days. Webpages advanced, graphics became the norm, and now we have portable computers in our pockets. As technology advanced, so did I. Webpages started being served in PHP and Javascript and I also had to learn CSS. It’s been a challenge to keep up with the latest advances in the web but I do my best. Knowing HTML, Javascript, and CSS alone have allowed me to create websites for many businesses over the years.
