About Me
I'm Kevin, a frontend developer and designer based in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. I specialize in building modern, user-focused web applications that solve real-world problems. Especially in high-stakes, mission-driven environments.
With over eight years of experience in web development, I've worked with startups, agencies, and enterprise organizations to design and ship digital products that are both beautiful and resilient. Much of my work has focused on political and civic technology, where I've helped build outreach, data, and fundraising platforms that support first-time candidates, organizers, and grassroots teams across the country. Including systems that have handled millions of messages in the days leading up to an election.
I care deeply about building humane, reliable software: tools that are easy to use, hold up under pressure, and reflect equity and dignity by default. That means partnering closely with non-technical teams, writing clear documentation and tests, and designing systems that help people focus on the work that matters most.
Currently, I'm building Civics Lab, a growing suite of tools for political campaigns and civic organizations.
Experience
Movement Labs
UI/UX Engineer
Mar 2023 - PresentI led the design and development of mission-critical web applications supporting political campaigns and grassroots organizations nationwide. My work focused on building reliable, user-centered systems for voter outreach, fundraising, and volunteer engagement—often under tight election timelines. I partnered closely with programs, communications, and development teams to translate real-world organizing needs into scalable, well-documented software that held up under pressure.
Operations Associate
Nov 2021 - Mar 2023I supported internal operations and program teams by improving workflows, tooling, and data processes across the organization. Working at the intersection of people and systems, I helped identify operational gaps and implemented practical solutions that reduced friction for staff and organizers. This role grounded my approach to technology in empathy, clarity, and real organizational needs.
Reparadise
Office Manager
Jan 2021 - Nov 2021I managed day-to-day operations for a fast-paced service business, overseeing scheduling, internal systems, and process improvements. I introduced workflow automation and operational tooling that reduced redundancy, improved turnaround time, and allowed the team to focus more on customer service and growth. This experience shaped my systems-thinking approach to both people and processes.
Inclan Communications
Project Manager
Oct 2015 - Jul 2020I led cross-functional teams delivering web, mobile, and design projects for agency clients. I coordinated requirements, timelines, and stakeholder communication while establishing repeatable processes for reviews, documentation, and delivery. Alongside project management, I contributed to UX and interface design, helping ship products that were both visually polished and easy to use.
Avval Software
Founder
Nov 2013 - Jul 2015I founded and led an early-stage ed-tech startup, designing and building a learning management system for public schools from the ground up. I owned product strategy, UX design, and early development while collaborating with educators to ensure the platform met real classroom needs. This experience taught me how to take products from concept to launch—and how to balance vision, constraints, and user trust.
