he/him Snohomish, WA 𝗕𝗶𝗼𝗴𝗿𝗮𝗽𝗵𝘆 My name is Joshua (JT) Allen and I am a Quality Project Manager at The Boeing Company with over 10 years of experience in both Quality Assurance and Leadership. I am also a Soldier in the Washington Army National Guard. After finally gaining the courage to come out thanks to the guidance and mentorship of one of my Sergeants in the Army, I dedicated myself to providing a safe space and guidance for junior Soldiers who were also part of the LGBTQ+ community. Now that I am working full time in the private sector, I have been searching for opportunities to continue providing that support and guidance to LGBTQ+ youth. I hope to be the shining example and guide of what LGBTQ+ people are capable of, just like my Sergeant was for me.
