Joseph Carothers
I’m a web developer specializing in creating interactive applications, company websites, and internal tools. While I primarily focus on front-end development, I’m equally comfortable working on the back-end, having built multiple server-side applications using the ExpressJS framework, integrating with both SQL and NoSQL databases.
Recently, I’ve worked at Action Network on a range of projects, from building tools that empower SEO teams to deliver high-value content, to developing a distributed promotion rendering platform powered by Web Components. This platform seamlessly runs across various clients, including WordPress and React applications.
I’m passionate about continually expanding my skills and knowledge, and I thrive on tackling challenging projects. Beyond web development, I explore a variety of other interests, which you can see reflected in my work below.

Scuba Diving
I love to scuba! I've done diving in North Carolina, Florida, Mexico, and want to go to many more places.
Sailing
In 2022 I bought my first fixer upper sailboat. After spending the summer fixing it up, I've been learning to sail. I love the freedom and challenge of sailing.
Hiking
I love hiking in any location I travel to. Nature is one of the best ways to learn about the world.
3D Printing
3d printing is a hobby I've been doing for a few years. The ability to tinker and create things in my own home is amazing and the novelty never wears off.
Surfing
I love the beach and the ocean. I've been surfing for a few years and it's a great way to relax and enjoy the water.
Ring Making
Another random hobby I've picked up is ring making. I've made rings out of silver and gold. The ability to make something of value that others can enjoy is a great feeling.
