The Whos, the Whats, the Wheres, the Whys, and the Hows.

Hey there! My name is Nate Riddering. I am a student athlete competing in track and field and cross country. I am finishing my bachelor's degree in computer science and starting a master's in artificial intelligence. My professional experience has included building tools to track production in a manufacturing plant and building a website to automate manual data entry tasks.

I'm starting this company to gain experience and take control of my time. Balancing training, school, and everything else has taught me how valuable time really is. Having a job as a student athlete is hard. Any job I have during the school year would have to be flexible. Instead of working around a schedule that does not fit, I want to build something that does. Nothing is more flexible than being your own boss.

Every summer since the beginning of high school, I have had a summer project, where I spend the summer learning and building something that I can use. I like making wacky looking things. I think that good engineering is SEXY. I've built drones, desks, computers, knives, and most recently a porch swing. I've decided this is my summer project — entrepreneurship.

Thank you for listening to my ramblings. Have a great day!
