I'm Kyle Kerley, owner of KLK Code LLC
Are you looking for an honest, dependable, trustworthy front end developer with excellent communication and time management skills for your next web development project? If so, you’ve come to the right place.
I believe in building clean, solid sites with excellent usability and accessibility. I believe in keeping up with the development trends, but only using them when they make sense. I believe in adding features/functionality/technologies that solve problems–not just for the sake of having it.
Located in Denver, CO, I bring over a 15 years of experience in web development, email marketing, and client services to the table. I’ve worked for large, global agencies, smaller regional agencies, as well as one-on-one with clients, and I’ve been an independent contractor and freelancer since July 2017.
Expertise offered
As a full-stack developer and having worked at many agencies of varying sizes, I’ve had experience with a wide array of development-related projects. I don’t shy away from new challenges, but instead embrace them and learn on the fly. I’m always improving upon and expanding my skill set; I’m always pushing myself to be better than yesterday.

Career experience
I’ve worked on teams as large as 27 people for a single client down to being the sole point of contact for all account management, development, and quality assurance for 13 separate clients simultaneously.
Working for numerous large companies and agencies in both Milwaukee, WI and Denver, CO has given me client management and development experience from many unique perspectives.
I’m a friendly, outgoing, motivated self-starter who prefers to dive headfirst into new projects and I’m as capable on my own as I am in larger team settings. I adapt quickly to meet my clients’ needs so I can provide the best service possible!
Building and maintaining client relationships
From managing client communications, to doing full site rebuilds, to creating marketing email streams and strategies, no project or client is too big or too small! I have experience working with global juggernauts as well as small mom-and-pop shops and would be happy to work with your organization regardless of size!
Relationships wither and die when communication is lacking. That’s why I take communication very seriously. Expect thorough, timely, and substantive updates along with questions for clarification to ensure I’m doing everything exactly as you want it throughout the entire time we work together.
