Nathan Kinney

I am a recent Industrial Design graduate from Houston, Texas. I attended Auburn University and graduated in May.

I love to learn. I love working with a team. I am easy to get along with.

I have loved design all my life and am particularly inspired by the natural world. I want to use design to communicate the function of an object in the most beautiful way possible.
