This is my personal corner of the internet. It's where I share the books I write, the apps and games I build, the websites I design, and the music I make. Marketing is my day job, and you can find that side of me at irmomarketing.com.
About Me
Hi, I'm Nick. I live in Barrington, Illinois, and I've always got something in the works. Some weeks it's a new book, some weeks it's a little app or game, and some weeks it's a website for a new idea.
I've spent more than 15 years in marketing, and that work taught me how to take an idea and actually ship it. This site is where I put the things I make for fun, for family, and for the people who might enjoy them.
Looking for my professional marketing work, resume, or consulting? That's all at irmomarketing.com.
