About
Nathan's
goals as a designer are founded on his commitment to blending architecture with
advocacy work. For all of his projects, Nathan seamlessly integrates diversity,
equity, and inclusion in every facet of the design process. Driven by his
desire to provide equitable spaces to underserved communities, Nathan's work is
centered on uplifting the unique needs of clients and community members.
As
a Milwaukee resident, Nathan understands the importance of making impactful
design decisions to best serve diverse communities. When making such crucial
decisions, he invests an appropriate amount of time and care in identifying the
historical and cultural context of the site location. In doing so, Nathan's
projects are heavily informed by not only the physical precedents, but also the
lived experiences of the community members.
Nathan’s architectural research opportunities have allowed
him to study a variety of topics, including climate activism and resource
management (Drawdown: Play to Enter, 2023), the impact historical U.S.
Supreme Court cases had on the delineation of privacy (Supreme Privacy, 2022),
and the environmental impact of persistent border surveillance (Border
Surveillance + Environmental Impact, 2024).
