ERIC KINYUA
@erickinyua
Frontend developer and UI/UX designer building responsive, accessible, conversion-optimised web experiences.
KenyaWhat I'm looking for
I’m a front-end developer and UI/UX designer who blends design sensibility with technical execution and operational reliability. I build responsive, accessible, and conversion-optimised web experiences — from wireframe to deployment — while leveraging hands-on IT support experience to deliver stable, user-friendly, performant outcomes.
I’ve worked across the full delivery cycle, from requirements gathering to design, development, testing, deployment, and iterative improvement. I conduct UX research and turn client goals into clean, functional interfaces backed by solid technical judgement.
On the front-end, I optimise performance and user journeys to improve measurable results, including page speed, checkout flows, and conversion paths. I’ve also delivered WordPress and WooCommerce solutions, including e-commerce functionality, booking systems, and dynamic content.
My background in IT support strengthens how I approach reliability, monitoring, and user enablement. I’ve maintained high uptime (99.9% in a fixed-term contract role) and improved accessibility compliance through WCAG 2.1 audits and targeted fixes.
