Nathan has spent most of his career in the startup ecosystem as an employee and a 3x founder. His online courses on web design have earned over 60,000 enrollments from 179 countries. He has spearheaded startup initiatives for major corporations and became the youngest board member at a youth leadership development nonprofit in 2017. As a mentor and certified facilitator for Techstars—the world’s largest pre-seed investor, and a mentor for the Founder Institute—the world’s largest pre-seed accelerator, Nathan has honed his skills in nurturing innovation and fostering entrepreneurial spirit.
Nathan uses his experience in entrepreneurship combined with his professional acting & improvising experience to create engaging experiences that develop participants’ entrepreneurial thinking ability.
Improv comedy is one of the tools in Nathan’s toolbox, as he has performed as a professional actor & improviser.
Improv comedy, the skill of performative unscripted conversation, is all about creating something from nothing, pivoting and performing under pressure, and (usually) relying heavily on a team.
Nathan uses the similarities between improv and entrepreneurship to develop iterative thinking.
