About Me
G'Day, I’m Nathan. I'm a developer novice, sportsman, and explorer of content in the JavaScript sphere. I have worked at 🥣Gomae as a Junior Frontend Dev and am actively searching and engaging for further opportunities to develop my skills.
I’ve been on a journey exploring and discovering new connections mostly virtually at conferences and meetups about front-end development, design and networking. I hope grasp further knowledge and wisdom in development and tech careers (my resume), towards my personal life on my journal.

I've moved from Australia🇦🇺 ✈️ Canada🇨🇦 to explore and discover web tech industry. I spend my free time playing sports, recreating recipes, and enjoy hanging out with friends and family in both 🇦🇺🇨🇦.
