About Me

Trey Kane

I transform ideas into exceptional web experiences. I'm a technologist with 13+ years specializing in front-end development, I bridge the gap between creative vision and technical implementation.

My journey began experimenting with web technologies as a teenager, and that same curiosity continues to drive me today. I'm constantly exploring both emerging and established tools—finding the right combination to solve complex problems efficiently.

My technical foundation includes deep expertise in JavaScript ecosystems, responsive design patterns, performance optimization, and creating accessible interfaces that work for everyone.

What sets me apart is my balanced approach: I value elegant code architecture as much as intuitive user experiences. I thrive in collaborative environments where I can contribute both technical solutions and strategic thinking.

I approach each project as an opportunity to create something meaningful that serves real users while pushing the boundaries of what's possible on the web.

Time is soup, good soup.

February 11, 2024

My lovely wife and I have an on-going joke about how time constantly is slipping away from us, yet not… “Time is soup.” It’s hard to put together the pieces of what the last three years have been. It seems like everything has just been a mad rush since June 2020. I can finally feel […]

    Began working fully remote with 10up as a Front-End Engineer. Working with a fully remote team, developing mostly WordPress sites for a wide array of clients. 10up offers creative and engineering services to businesses looking for a creative agency, or integrates with existing teams to help with specialized projects and initiatives.

    I built a site for my friend Mikey, who started a new business. This site is going to be primarily managed by him and he's very familiar with WordPress. So for this build I decided to use the WordPress Gutenberg editor for the first time to build out a number of custom blocks. This site includes the ability to create the site as a single page, or multiple pages. Includes a blog, storefront, photo galleries, splash screen, and optional navigation. The site design work was a collaboration with myself, my wife Emily and our friend Colleen
