Nate's life is guided by the following question: How will we evolve our norms, laws, and institutions such that all people define and achieve their own flourishing while living in balance with each other and the planet? This inquiry led him to design a Bachelor's degree in Education & Community Studies at Davidson College.

After completing the degree, Nate traveled the globe as a high school study abroad program leader, where he designed, facilitated, and evaluated community-based experiential learning programs. Nate went on to serve as a consultant and coach at The Bridgespan Group, where he advised nonprofits and philanthropies to clarify their intended impact, improve operating models, strengthen executive teams, and lead organizational change. Nate currently serves as Senior Manager at Social Impact Exchange, where he supports a multi-sector network of ~6,000 executives to co-design, co-fund, and implement initiatives to transform society's systems toward equity and justice, and as an Excursion Leader with EdOdyssey based in Oakland, CA.
