Nathaniel Francis

Developer CKH Consulting

I was born and raised in southern Wisconsin where the weather’s always changing. After high school, I studied ministry in Chicago and worked in the flat roofing industry, which I continued for a few years after college. I started web development working with CF for some of our company’s projects and then some client work. It was in the client work that I got my first taste of microservice-style projects. We started with a lean (2 applications) microservice project and progressively worked up to higher intensity and volume microservices systems with increasingly modern technologies tailored for these kind of projects. In my personal life, I enjoy playing the piano, meditating on The Bible, loving Jesus, reading and writing science fiction, and building a life together with my wonderful wife, and 8 children.
