Hi, I'm Nathan.|

I make websites.

About me

I'm a front-end web developer with a background in digital marketing. After a decade working in Toronto's performing arts scene designing ads, making videos, taking photos, drafting social media posts (and whatever else that was needed), I decided to spend some of my pandemic with the cool people at Juno College learning to code... at home in my sweatpants. I'm a dog dad and occasional DJ with a love of minimalist design, electronic music and science fiction.

Things I've made

JavaSynth | JavaScript, Sass

Take a neon-tinged journey back to the objectively coolest decade with this playable JavaScript synthesizer! Select from a range of preset sounds, noodle around on the keyboard and live out your fantasy of becoming a retro synthwave god.

Solo project.

Bored & Lonely | React, API, Firebase

It's been a rough... everything. So I made this React app that generates a random activity to do based on a bunch of categories. Save your activity for later and get to it when you manage to get yourself out of bed!

Solo project.
