Nate Williams

Lecturer

After moving to Cape Town in pursue to study Computer science, I found myself being a college dropout within a few months into my studies due to lack of financial support and I ended up completing my studies through self-learning and I happily found myself on the path to becoming a Developer, and have never looked back... I have a passion for building things and it so happens that a logical perspective goes a long way in developing and building websites. Through hard work and dedication have made my journey from humble beginnings to the successful developer I am today.
