Hello.
I’m Nick. I’m a product manager, technology consultant, and writer. Here’s my resume; I am available for consulting and for hire.
I ran the user-centered web development firm Neoteric Design for 20+ years; I built digital products for my clients while fostering my team’s culture of quality, sustainability, and expertise. In 2022, I closed Neoteric to explore new opportunities.
This is my blog. On the technical side I write about product management, user experience, static sites and more.
On the personal side I write book reviews, maintain some language learning resources and write about personal knowledge management. I’m passionate about fitness, travel, and cooking.
