Who

A 29 year old from the San Francisco Bay Area, now living in Brooklyn and working for First Look Media.

I write once or twice a week at writing.natwelch.com.

I post photos with varying consistency on Flickr.

I try to be randomly clever on Twitter.

I publish code on Github.

My most well known creations are giftionary.city, mood.natwelch.com, sadnat.com, Onesie and fog-google. I also maintain some other semi-popular packages: three-things and instagram-continued.

I have documented my professional work on my resume.

I have given a variety of talks. Here are some that I am particularly proud of.
