Nate and his daughter flailing in the Wisconsin winter wonderland — I’m a west coast resident with a Midwest mindset

I’m Nate, the designer behind this small-minded machine.

If you landed here, I have recently renamed and moved my newsletter to Make It Yours.

I’d love to have you there, as I’m still writing every Sunday.

Every Sunday, I’ll bring you stories from my own experiences as a self-taught designer and entrepreneur, highlight special guests, or send you the best articles I’m reading to help you stay motivated to build a business or brand that resonates.

See you Sunday morning!
