// Operator
Kit Mobleyis a web developer and charter captain based in Islamorada, Florida. He builds custom websites for small businesses across the Florida Keys, from Key Largo to Key West, using Astro, Tailwind CSS, and Netlify. Prior work includes the first website for Ultra Music Festival (2000–2001) and Tribune Media digital across six major newspapers (Los Angeles Times, Sun-Sentinel, Orlando Sentinel, Baltimore Sun, Hartford Courant, Chicago Tribune). He holds two U.S. patents (US6999458 and EP1836591A2), a USCG Captain's License, and serves as Vice President of South Atlantic Fishing Environmentalists (S.A.F.E.), a 460+ member marine conservation organization. Single-page sites start at $500; multi-page at $1,500; full custom builds at $5,000+. Phone: (954) 682-9551.
I built websites for Ultra Music Festival before most people had broadband. I co-invented two U.S. patents during one of the largest IPOs in history. I architected AWS for the Chicago Tribune empire. Now I ship complete sites in 24 hours with AI. Same hustle I had cranking club flyers at 3 AM.
