Paula Skoviera (Big Brothers Big Sisters of Northwestern Wisconsin)

"I had the privilege of working alongside Nate during my time with Big Brothers Big Sisters. He was an incredible addition to the team and helped propel us forward to reaching our goals AND providing successful matches within St. Croix County and surrounding area. Nate's compassion for others is evident from the first handshake and he is intentional in all that he does. His time as the Director of NAMI has given him a sense of empathy that is contagious and a deep wisdom for relating to others. I learned so much from him indirectly and working together was easy and fun. He knows how to develop team culture, communicate well and work as a team. "

Joe Schlesing (MSCR - Mendota Community Learning Center)

“He is a respectful and effective communicator. Our programs serve a diverse population and Nathan was able to connect with all of the children and families we serve regardless of their backgrounds. Nathan also does a good job of supporting and communicating with the staff he supervises and with his direct supervisors. Since joining our team at the CLC Nathan has helped to redefine the climate of our work environment and has been instrumental in fostering connections between our after school programs and the school day staff. Nathan has a good eye for detail and anticipates and solves problems before they arise. Nathan also has good judgment in the face of difficult situations. He is an effective mediator with regard to conflict resolution and he is both liked and respected by the staff he supervises.”

Pablo Ruiz (Franklin Elementary)

“I attribute a lot of his success to his sound judgment, as well as his ability to effectively communicate to a wide variety of people.  School staff, parents, and children all take a shine to Nathan because they know he is someone who they can trust… From the moment he stepped in the door at Franklin, Nathan proved to be a true asset to our program. His proactive, organized, and personable attitude were invaluable to me, as well as our program as a whole.”

Karly Wallace (UWL Student Association)

“Nate was very creative and always willing to take on new tasks as the Director of Public Relations for Student Association. He would often reach out to others to see if he could help with any PR campaigns or help with a project. Nate definitely proved to be a self-starter and came to the table with numerous ideas. It was a pleasure to have such as hardworking, motivated individual on my team.”
