Hello! I’m Kevin Gresmer, a passionate developer with a strong foundation in building efficient, scalable, and user-centric web applications.
Currently, I’m a Full-Stack Developer, helping the Federal Reserve create a new application to sell and manage savings bonds. With a deep interest in modern web technologies and a commitment to continuous learning, I enjoy tackling complex challenges and staying ahead of industry trends. Whether it’s building responsive user interfaces, optimizing databases, or deploying cloud-based applications, I thrive on creating impactful digital experiences.
I hold a bachelor’s degree in environmental engineering from The University of Wisconsin - Platteville, where I developed my problem-solving, time management skills and love for Ultimate Frisbee.
