Bio
Nic Colley
Nate is one of the most brilliant, dedicated, and creative guys that I've ever come across. When we first met, I was struggling with a few concepts within a computer science class. After understanding my challenges, he quickly removed my mental blocks and coached me to success. I was able to take his lessons and complete any task that a class asked me to do. Since college, I've seen Nate grow personally and professionally. He attacks challenges with a level of dedication that few posses and completes it with a high level of polish.

I have worked with Nate for a year and his knowledge and professionalism have always been well above average. In addition to his development skills, his process improvement and interpersonal skills are excellent. He is able to connect with the client and functional partners about technical subjects without overwhelming them. He is also able to manage project tasks holistically without the myopia typically associated with developers. If you need devops work or project management in an IT setting, Nate is your guy.
