Nate was raised by a middle class family with small town roots. The combination of his mother's love & compassion, mixed with his father's unparalleled work ethic & grit helped mold Nate into the businessman he is today.

Growing up, Nate always had big dreams and was willing to work harder than most to achieve them. Following his love for art & interest in advertising, Nate decided to forego the typical path of higher education and enrolled himself at a vocational school to study graphic design & marketing.

Nate worked three jobs to put himself through school before accepting a career-position prior to graduating with honors. Nate's innate business sense led him along several different paths. After years of ups, downs, sacrifices, challenges, and lessons learned Nate was inspired by a larger than life goal - to change the digital ticketing industry.
