Welcome
Hello, my name is Colin Kern and welcome to my ASP.NET Core MVC app that I have built using NET Core 8.0, C#, and Razor Pages.
My name is Colin Kern. I am currently a programmer in the insurance industry. I have been working as a programmer for the past 6 years. I started out writing scripts while working Tech Support. You can check out my scripts and other projects I've worked on by visiting my GitHub Projects page, or by clicking here. My scripts are a mix of Python, Powershell, and AutoHotKey. All the other projects are written in C# .
I am most experienced in .NET languages such as C# and Visual Basic, as that is what I spend most of my day interacting with.
I graduated from Iowa State University in Ames, Iowa in May 2017 with a Bachelor of Science degree in Management Information Systems (MIS).
When I'm not programming you'll probably find me in the gym, or on the courts playing Pickleball.
Feel free to look around at the GitHub Projects I've done.
I started out my post college career working in Tech Support, on the IT Service Desk. It was there that I taught myself my first programming language, Python. After learning Python, I was presented opportunities on the IT Service Desk to learn other scripting languages, like AutoHotKey and Powershell. After a few years of doing scripting languages, I decided to learn a new language, something that was more object oriented. I decided to teach myself C#. So I spent the next few months doing online examples, reading lots of online documentation, and writing a few simple programs. With my new knowledge of C# I was able to get the Application Analyst job that I currently have. In this role I use C# and .NET all the time. Whether it's working on Azure hosted applications or developing on prem solutions.
