The son of an Air Force pilot and the oldest of four children, Nathan developed his love for history, aviation, the military, and filmmaking when he was shown the movie, "The Memphis Belle," at five years old. As a young adult, Nathan took his family's camcorder and recorded short movies featuring anything he could get his hands on including GI Joes, Lego, and plastic army men.

Throughout High School, Nathan taught himself the art of filmmaking until he joined the United States Air Force in 2008. In 2012, after serving a religious mission to Brazil, Nathan started his studies in Communications: Public Relations and Advertising at Weber State University, graduating in 2016. For Nathan, filmmaking has always been a hobby and a passion that he takes his own time to pursue. Releasing his first short in 2014, he has continued to release military history related shorts when opportunity allows, always seeking to improve with each short and try new techniques. In 2020, Nathan fulfilled one part of his dream by becoming a KC-135 pilot in the same squadron for which his father flew.
