HUMBLE BEGINNINGS

Nathaniel first fell in love with performing doing improv in high school. Making people laugh was a small itch that became an obsession. After studying improv at The Second City, he enrolled at The Piven Theatre Workshop and discovered there was more to his obsession than laughter. What he really loves is captivating people with authentic storytelling.

LET’S GET PHYSICAL

Growing up, Nathaniel’s first dream was to become an Olympic gymnast, and he competed nationally and regionally for twelve years. (DANG!) He also has a passion for martial arts and is familiar with four fight styles. He uses these skills to give him a strong physical presence in his work. He is SAFD certified for hand to hand combat and is looking to certify for sword and dagger as well!

AM I WRITE?!

After years of auditioning and reading script after script, Nathaniel realized that he had his own stories to tell. During his free time he does screenwriting of his own. With the help from his friends, he loves creating original content in the form of skits and short films. His ultimate goal is to film his own feature length, as well as completing a TV series screenplay.

AWWW

When he isn’t performing or producing his own content, Nathaniel is coaching gymnastics at Broadway Gymnastics inspiring the youth to be the best version of themselves.
