Nathaniel Michael
WEB DESIGNER / DEVELOPER / PILOT / EVIL GENIUS
I'm a creative. I have a keen interest in everything to do with design, web- design and development - technology - you would probably call it an obsession. I live and work in Washington state, in Seattle. I’m open-minded, responsible, and I learn very fast. I’m willing and excited to both learn new things and gain more experience in what I do know.
