Summary
Hunter Hawes is a versatile front-end developer and regional sales coordinator with 10 years of experience blending user-centered design, JavaScript engineering (React, Meteor, Node) and hands-on product support. He has shipped responsive web apps, maintained legacy Meteor backends, and collaborated with distributed teams to debug and roll out features for Tutor the People and other clients. A former radio producer and music entrepreneur, Hunter brings a practiced sense for storytelling, live production and audience engagement to UX and product work. He pairs strong CSS/HTML craft (SASS, Bourbon, responsive layouts) with pragmatic tooling—Gulp, Git, Heroku—to keep projects deployable across environments. Known for turning marketing and event data into simple automation (including early custom RSVP scripts) and for reliably stepping into cross-functional roles, he thrives at the intersection of technical execution and real-world communication. Based in Minneapolis, he’s available for public speaking and conference presentations on front-end development and media production.
