A quick hello to everyone at Blackstone Audio from Nathan (in < 20 seconds)
I’m interested in general nonfiction, with a focus on business, technology/science and travel.
(And I like other genres too—below are demos and more on my background!)
I’ve coached with Shannons Parks (aka Marguerite Gavin) on her full FICTION curriculum and have worked (onstage) with Ray Porter. I’m also a big fan/student/actor of SHAKESPEARE, and have made several trips to Oregon for the Festival.
A recent project from HarperCollins: an Apple Books “Must Listen”

“Nathan has something to offer that 99% of others don’t. He is always professional and responsive, and his work is excellent. I’ve had thousands of people pitch me their services over the years, and from the moment I received Nathan’s first email [about narrating articles on my site], it was clear he is different.”
