Design Systems • UX Leadership • Inclusive Design
I'm Kassee Homolka, a product designer based in Denver, Colorado with 10+ years of experience across UX, UI, frontend development, and design systems. I've led enterprise-scale systems and designed responsive tools for native mobile, web, TV, and technician-facing apps across telecom, 5G, streaming, education, and retail.
My background in marketing, development, and design helps me think holistically and collaborate across disciplines. I care deeply about people, accessible design, and bringing clarity to complex systems – grounding decisions in empathy, evidence, and the lived experiences of users.
These days I'm seeking opportunities that align with my values – progressive, mission-driven spaces where design can create meaningful impact, particularly around equality, care, and innovation.
