What clients say (really nice things)
“Nathan defies many of the expectations of a web designer: He is incredibly responsive, does what he says he’ll do, and shows up with seemingly unflappable calm. Oh, and he’s got a great eye for design, technical proficiency and an understanding of how real businesses use websites. Thanks to my new website, I currently have a waitlist of dozens of patients, and dozens more in my inbox.”
Matt Lundquist Tribeca Therapy“Our team provided Nathan with an incomplete design, a nearly unrealistic deadline, and many pending questions. Yet, Nathan delivered the entire project on time, on budget, with no stress, and he set up the entire website on the most user friendly platform we’ve ever used. We’re thrilled with the work Nathan did and are looking forward to starting a new project with him later this year.”
Lucas Belem Jesus Collective“In the past we’ve worked with all sorts of individuals, some excellent at design, some excellent at coding. Nathan is good at both. He also possesses a good business mind, and his ability to grasp the business need rather than getting lost in the technical or visual aspects of the project was refreshing. I believe it is a combination that many individuals in this field lack.”
Jonathan Agosta Risolv IT Solutions“Nathan is an organized thinker with great peripheral vision. He is not just a designer; he is a strategist. He is able to anticipate what’s coming in the dynamic world of technology, knows how it will impact his clients, and lays a digital foundation so they can take advantage of it. He finds innovative solutions to challenging problems. One of Nathan’s gifts is helping his clients present their messages in a way that is clear, compelling, and organized. We would recommend Nathan to any organization who needs a digital strategist, designer, or developer.”
Jacqueline Dugas EHC International / Canada“I can emphatically state that working with Nathan was fantastic. He took the complex ideas behind our products and reframed them into simple concepts, easy for our clients to understand. We loved his work so much we have hired him to work on some of our client work as well.”
Kieren Tinning Terraflow Geomatics“Nathan surpassed all my expectations. He truly listened to what I wanted, came up with better ideas, and then implemented them to perfection. Since hiring Nathan, I constantly receive positive feedback on the simplicity and clarity of my website. Working with Nathan was a joy!”
Tyler Reeves Plimsoll Financial Planning“Being a product designer, I’ve worked with many developers of the years, and I’d have to say that Nathan is one of best. He translated my designs to code with absolute tedious precision — something I’ve discovered is hard to find. He was also very prompt with his communication, often weighing in on the design using his areas of expertise, giving us a more cohesive end product. I sincerely hope Nathan and I can tag team another project in the future.”
Phil Goodwin Fivebox“Nathan has been a dream to work with from the beginning to end of our project. He not only designed and built a beautiful, creative and functional website that met our objectives, but he was able to partner with our team right from the beginning to understand what we wanted to accomplish through the project and partnered with us to come up with the best solutions to get us there. From creative designs to writing in copy to fill our gaps, he wasn’t just trying to get the job done, it felt like he had joined our team and was working with us to achieve our objective.”
Chris Vandijk The Meeting House“We wanted a development studio that could bring our lofty vision for our non-profit website to life. And we had a feeling that Wildfire Studios was the right choice from the beginning. We were not wrong. Nathan was timely, attentive, and insightful. He offered better and alternate solutions when he had them and made it really easy for our team to learn how to update the site on our own. We never felt like any question we asked was stupid. And we asked A LOT of questions. He’s also hands down one of the nicest guys we know. We adore our new site and are so grateful for Nathan’s expertise.”
