It’s been confirmed- Nate is a true Midwesterner at heart. After spending time in Columbus OH, Miami FL, and several European countries, he fell in love with Chicago upon first visit and finally landed here in 2022. Since then, he has spent his time exploring every coffee shop the city has to offer (he even organizes a coffee meetup that meets every Saturday), training for half marathons, connecting and spending time with his friends and family.

As a designer, Nate’s interests lie at the intersection of architecture and graphic design. He believes that a good idea is only as good as it is represented and enjoys researching and discovering how designs and ideas can be vest conveyed through visual media. He is fiercely passionate about how the built environment can empower marginalized and underserved groups. He completed his Master’s research at the University of Miami, where he used his background in graphic design to articulate how architecture affects people on the autism spectrum. He hopes to continue that research and build a name for himself in the field as he works towards becoming a licensed architect.

Prior to his Master’s, Nate completed a Bachelor of Science in Architecture at The Ohio State University.

Nate hadn’t been to a concert in four years until he got a last minute ticket to the Era’s Tour show in 2023.
