From Nate’s earliest memory, he has always been working in construction. Nate’s father, uncles, and grandfather all were engineers or contractors.

As a Savannah native, Nate attended Savannah Christian Preparatory School and Georgia Southern University. He grew up with an appreciation of the historic sites in his hometown and the skills and expertise it takes to maintain them. This appreciation not only guides him in his professional life but also his interests outside of work. 

Nate is a member of the Historic Savannah Foundation’s 13th Colony Group which cultivates the next generation of preservation-minded community leaders. He is also a member of the Telfair Academy’s William Jay Society which promotes a commitment to developing an awareness, understanding, and appreciation of art. He volunteers with Civitan of Savannah which aims to serve and help those with developmental disabilities.
