I’m Nathan, and Noise Jockey profiles my adventures in sound. All sound, photography, and design on this site is my own, unless stated otherwise.

I’m a multidisciplinary creative in the San Francisco Bay Area. I shun specialties in favor of being an “expert generalist,” and have been lucky enough to build a career around doing so. My educational and work background spans video editing, visual effects, illustration, interaction design, broadcast motion design, videography, photography, music, and sound design. Each informs and inspires the other, and helps me to coordinate between all these disciplines. I’ve done some combination of all these things for Fortune 100 firms, nonprofits, games, and even a film or two.

I am currently the design director of Stimulant, providing interaction design for multi-touch, gestural, and other natural user interfaces. My motion design work was repped by Atom Films back in the day, and some of my photography is repped by Getty Images. At some point I released an album, did tons of remixing, and all sorts of other stuff lost to audio history.

When not actively creating, I’m hiking, backpacking, sea kayaking, cycling, and studying film and art history.
