Narrative:

Cleared to 15000 ft on initial climb out. While deviating around WX, we received a frequency change and a reroute on our clearance. We missed the leveloff at 15000 ft, topping out at 15400 ft before going back down to 15000 ft. ARTCC had no comment on the deviation. Remainder of flight was uneventful.
