I have waded through the muck of table layouts and Netscape 4 support and have come out a believer in web standards.

With a design background and a BFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago I can offer a more holistic perspective on UI design than most web developers can. As a self taught programmer, I don’t back down from a challenge. I am a maker at heart and I’m not afraid to void a warranty just to see how something works.

Have a project you need help with? I am available for contract gigs, speaking engagements, and consulting.

Nathan is a mastermind of all things wireframe, where I see a web page as a canvas of code blocks he sees content, structure and architecture.

This book is a step by step guide on how to build a kick ass component based design system. Much of the theories, examples and methodologies in this book are taken directly from the sun.com playbook. I have three contributions in the book on various topics along with fellow Sun folks Chris Haaga, Jennifer Bohmbach, and Martin Hardee.

Check out the book’s website for info.
