Nate was born and raised in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. From early childhood to today, he has admired a wide variety of classic and contemporary cartoons, like Disney’s Sword in the Stone, Hanna Barbera’s Jonny Quest, and Rankin/Bass’s animated version of The Hobbit.

He refined his craft at Dakota State University, and graduated in 2016 with a BS in Digital Arts and Design, specializing in animation.

Using a mix of modern techniques and classic cutout animation styles (commonly seen in Comedy Central’s South Park), he’s able to make moving characters and create stories that evoke laughter and joy. For a look at his unique style of animation, see his latest project, Wart & Jim’s Fantastic Zombie Wasteland.
