Hi, my name is

Nate

I build tools that solve real problems.

I'm a developer who focuses on utility first. I strip away complexity to build applications that solve actual problems for real users.

About Me

I have an insatiable curiosity for how things work. Whether I'm deploying cloud-native apps or modding hardware, I love the challenge of reverse-engineering a problem and building a solution from the ground up.

My technical stack bridges data, AI, and infrastructure. I use Python and AWS to build scalable backends, and TypeScript/React to create intuitive user interfaces. I believe the best developers are the ones who never stop asking questions.

Offline, that curiosity follows me into the kitchen, where I run a continuous science experiment with fermentation. I'm also a dad, a sci-fi reader, and a firm believer in constant self-improvement.
