Nathan started at 10/11 NOW in March 2021. He comes all the way from Blacksburg, VA where he received degrees in Multimedia Journalism and Finance from Virginia Tech.
Before his start in television, Nathan worked for ESPN Radio Blacksburg for nearly two years as an on-air producer. While his passion began in sports, he is looking forward to the transition into news.
When he isn’t covering the news, he enjoys cheering on his Hokies, working out or playing golf.
Although never having visited the CornHusker state before his role with 10/11, he is excited to learn about Nebraska and meet members of the community. You can interact with Nathan on Twitter or Facebook and let him know what all Nebraska has to offer.
