A painter by training from the School of Visual Arts in New York City, Allard has since pursued a successful career in interactive design. Responsible for designing user-focused experiences ranging from creativity tools to web experiences to games, he has received recognition in both the software and design industries for excellence in design.

Allard's ties to Jellyvision run deep. Prior to joining Jellyvision in 1999, Allard was the Producer for Disney Interactive who worked with Jellyvision to develop the PC version of Who Wants to be a Millionaire First Edition, which has gone on to become the fastest selling casual PC game ever. Further, during his tenure at Berkeley Systems between 1994-1996, Allard worked with Jellyvision as the original Art Director on YOU DON'T KNOW JACK Volume 1–the first title in the best selling Irreverent Trivia Quiz Show series. His accomplishments also include serving as the producer and designer of Disney's highly acclaimed, award winning The Magic Artist® and Disney's Magic Artist Studio creativity products.
Allard is a member of the Academy of Interactive Art and Design.
Why I like to Work at Jellyvision
I like to work at Jellyvision because the people are funny, the work is challenging and the grapefruit is delicious. Wait... that sounds a bit thin and trite. How about, "the people are challengingly funny, the work is deliciously tasty and the grapefruit sucks". Hmmm. Not all true and kind of weird. One more time: Working at Jellyvision brings with it some real perks; funny people, interesting work and all the damn grapefruit you want to eat.
