hey, I'm Nate

developer, UI/UX designer

I build cool stuff that actually feels good to use whether it's a personal/internal tool or a large-scale application. I care about the details. elegant UI, great performance, and code that doesn't feel like a mess.

I dabble in a lot of frontend and backend frameworks, but currently I'm focused on React Native development and NextJS for web.

    Mobile Applications Development·St. Clair College

    In this program I learned to develop, test, and deploy a variety of native mobile and web applications for multiple platforms while also designing, modeling, implementing and maintain databases within. I also learned how to design user-friendly prototypes inside these applications using tools like Figma. This program also gave me plenty of opportunity to work and lead teams to accomplish larger scale projects.
