Hey there! Thanks for stopping by. I'm Nate. I live with my wife and dogs outside of Chicago - during the day (and let's be honest, a lot of nights), I'm an independent strategic consultant for CPG companies. During other nights (and some days - I know, it's confusing), I sit on the couch with my dogs and make zines about a wide variety of topics that interest me. Sometimes people buy them. My first project was the Line Cook Activity Book, which was a fun little creative thing to do when I was bored of recipe testing, and growing tired of listening to another overloaded restaurant owner complain that the special they’d casually suggested to their chef two hours ago wasn’t selling. I needed another outlet to vent on this love-hate relationship I’ve always had with the business, and I’ve always been a fan of those books you buy at gas stations full of crosswords, logic puzzles, and pen-and-paper games.
