I eat cheesecake, I drink milk, and I wear a hat. This is me.

Hey guys, I’m Nate St. Pierre, the founder of ItStartsWith.Us and the writer responsible for just about everything you read on this site.

I am a 31-year-old web designer from Milwaukee, Wisconsin. In my professional life I lead a team of web designers for a large company in the senior living sector. In my personal life I’ve created a bunch of small websites for fun and (negligible) profit, but after a couple years of spending my talent on humor blogs and satire sites, I’ve decided that it’s about time I move on to more important things.

My goal is to build a global community of individuals focused on making a positive impact in the lives of the people around them. In this way I hope to change the world for the better, for my children and those that come after.

When I’m not busy with work, family, and freelance projects, I play a lot of basketball and volleyball, and read a lot of science fiction / fantasy.

You can email me anytime at nate [at] itstartswith.us. Comments on the site, compliments, shout outs, hate mail, new ideas, old ideas, business proposals, random questions, networking, just to chat . . . whatever. I love to read, write, and interact with people, so don’t worry about bothering me. Just understand that I may not be able to respond instantly.

Thanks for stopping by – I hope you enjoy the site. One request before you leave: if you like what I’m doing here, please take a look at the links under “Want to Help?” on the left side of the page, and consider helping me out. Some of the options take just a few seconds.
