Kyle Coberly

Let’s make the web!

I’m here to create, enjoy life, and empower others to do the same.

I’m currently the executive director of Develop Denver and a Lead Instructor at Flatiron School. I was previously the co-host of the Sprint UX podcast and the faculty director for Galvanize’s software education programs in Denver.

I was once (accurately) described as “that Linux user no one gives a shit about.” I love the Denver Broncos, stand-up comedy, and ska music.
