About

Hi, I’m Nate Anderson (full name Nathaniel Muir Anderson).

I’m a web-developer originally from Kāneʻohe, Hawaiʻi. I live in Englewood, Colorado with my husband, 2 dogs, and 1 cat.

I graduated from USC where I studied Interactive Media and Accounting. These days I’m interested in making fun apps and interesting projects (especially data visualization).

Here at bitmask I’ll post about things like:

• data journalism
• code experiments
• learning aids
• pics of my dogs
• movies, recipes, etc

I hope bitmask does better than my last few tries:

• Nate’s XBRL site
• an inactive Google App Engine app where I started learning web dev and planned to build a suite of XBRL tools
• Nate’s XBRL Blog
• a wordpress blog with the same kind of posts I plan to put here (coding, data-viz, personal interests, etc)
