Matt Nichols

Hello world, it’s me, Matt! I’m a software engineer and creative coder, living and working in San Francisco. After graduating from Brown CS about a decade ago, I’ve worked on engineering and creative teams at Twitter, Eyegroove, and Facebook/Meta. I’m now a cofounder of Good Wording, where we’re hard at work building an AI-powered tool for writing & thinking.

In both my professional work and in my personal life, I am driven by curiosity. I love figuring out how complex things fit together, especially when I can distill any underlying principles to further my own creative potential. There are so many things I have yet to learn, but I wouldn’t want it any other way!

Much like its author, this website is an eternal work in progress. I’d like it to be my internet living room: a vibey space decorated with things I’m proud of and fascinated by, a comfy spot for others to hang out, and a place I can call home. I’m honored that you’ve chosen to spend some time here with me – thanks so much for visiting!

If you want to get in touch, I’d love to hear from you. You can follow any of my links from the top of this page, or send me an email.
