Biography
Hi, I'm Nathan Burugu, a web developer, UI/UX designer, and graphic designer with a passion for creating beautiful, functional, and user-centered digital experiences. With 4 years of experience in the field, I am always looking for new and innovative ways to bring my clients' visions to life.
I believe that design is about more than just making things look pretty – it's about solving problems and creating intuitive, enjoyable experiences for users.
In addition to my design and development skills, I am proficient in cloud technologies, including Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google Cloud, and Azure. Whether I'm working on a website, mobile app, or other digital product, I bring my commitment to design excellence and user-centered thinking to every project I work on.
I am also a certified drone pilot, expanding my creative capabilities to aerial photography and videography. I look forward to the opportunity to bring my skills and passion to your next project.
