What does Nathan love most about nature?

My son has always been hands-on and full of energy he comes alive outside. Whether he’s building forts from branches, creating ramps for his bike, or inventing something out of random materials, he loves using his imagination and working with his hands. The outdoors is his favorite playground, full of endless possibilities.


What is Nathan's favorite animal—and why?

He has a deep love for all kinds of animals, but deer hold a special place in his heart and nothing means more to him than his dog Lola.


What is Nathan's favorite outdoor activity?

Nathan has always chased the next thrill, whether he’s scaling trees, climbing the rocks along the ocean, or exploring the world from the vantage point of a kayak. Even with a worn-out seat, his kayak is his gateway to quiet fishing spots and hidden coves. Driven by a love for the outdoors, he’s constantly on a mission to get his younger brother who’s on the autism spectrum to join him in his adventures, hoping to share the freedom and wonder of the wild with him.
