Hey y'all, I'm Nate. By day I lead Customer Engineering at Akkio. I've spent a dozen years building support and CX systems: at SpotHero I helped cut our telephony costs in half, and the company later sold to Uber (I take zero credit and full delight). On the side I write about church, politics, and technology, and build a few small things I hope make life a little easier for the people who use them.

Most of what I write circles the same conviction: that technology should serve people, that housing should be reachable for working families, and that the church should be a place people actually want to be on a Sunday morning. I'm more optimistic about all three than the internet would have you believe. Put differently: I'm human-first (take care of each other before anything else) and AI-pilled (I believe AI can help us do more of that).

Outside of work, I enjoy the difficult things: philosophy, faith, and politics. When I need to think clearly, I walk. When I need to solve something, I hike. There's something about 14,000 feet that makes problems feel solvable (likely the lack of oxygen).
