Hi, I'm Nathan
I love building products and teams that dramatically improve people's lives.I’ve built and operated high traffic web products for 15 years.I’ve grown and managed diverse, distributed teams of up to 100+ over the past 10 years.I bootstrapped businesses used by LinkedIn, Quora, Etsy, Barnes & Noble, ZocDoc, and TechCrunch.I was doing mobile development before it was cool on the TI-83.I’ve written some things.I’m married to Vanessa Hurst, the founder of Girl Develop It.I also love burritos and Diet Coke.I think “y’all” is a grammatical necessity.
