Hello! I'm Kai Asuncion, a passionate front-end developer and UX designer based in Kansas City, MO. With a robust background in both technical and creative fields, I specialize in developing intuitive, dynamic, and user-focused digital experiences. My journey in the tech world is driven by a love for problem-solving and an eagerness to learn.

During the lockdown in 2020, I earned my Associate of Applied Science in Web Development from Johnson County Community College. My educational journey equipped me with a robust foundation in HTML, CSS, and JavaScript with emphasis on user experience.

In my professional journey post-graduation, I stepped into the dynamic world of IT operations. Here, I've enriched my expertise through hands-on experiences with automations and collaborated extensively with cross-functional teams. This role have not only broadened my technical skills, but also honed my ability to navigate complex project environments.

Art, art history, and photography continue to shape my perspective, enriching my understanding of visual and user experience design.
