The face behind Kinetic Iris

Meet Danielle Zarcaro (they/them), a queer neurodivergent person with over a decade of experience in website development. After working with diverse small businesses, online publications, marketing agencies, and design firms, Danielle noticed a recurring trend: they all needed website help but often lacked the resources to establish an entire in-house website department.

So they took this information and their experience and created a way to make great accessible websites for those who need it. To become the go-to professional you could trust implicitly with your project, and to offer relief to those who have endured disappointing developer experiences.

Most important was creating an environment where anyone could thrive on their own sleep schedule and work in a way that allowed for flexibility for any reason, whether that’s neurodivergence, energy levels, emergencies, family commitments, or anything else.

A good way to distract Danielle from work is to show up with a gadget to tinker with or a puzzle (or piece of furniture to put together). They love to snuggle cats (and their husky) and putting hot chocolate in their coffee. You’ll often find them heading to bed just after sunrise and awake in time for the sunset.
