Fluent in design. Native in code.
I know where handoffs break down because I've been on both sides of them.
“My path into UI/UX didn't start with a portfolio or a bootcamp. It started with a decade of building the interfaces that designers imagined, close enough to the seams to understand why some ideas flourish and others quietly fall apart in implementation."
"The most valuable thing a designer with an engineering background can offer isn't just feasibility checks, it's the ability to reframe constraints as creative decisions."
"That proximity changed how I see design not as a handoff, but as a conversation."

About
Kevin Twery
My name is Kevin Twery. Over 10+ years in the industry, I've moved from front-end developer to UI/UX designer. I did this not by switching tracks, but by gradually earning a seat at the design table while never losing my technical footing. I know where handoffs break down because I've been on both sides of them.
