About Nate

Nate was born to act and perform! He began his career in 1997 at the age of five by performing magic for his family and friends. After several years of success in local venues, he was encouraged by his teachers, at age 13, to pursue his acting career in Hollywood.

Soon after he moved to Los Angeles, he immediately began acting classes and pursuing a professional acting career. His years of performing magic for family and friends paid off when he became accepted as a professional member of the Hollywood Magic Castle's Junior Magician Society.

His professional career began when he played a Guest Star on "The Bernie Mac Show." in 2005. Nate's career really began to move forward during the summer of 2006 when he played a recurring role on the Nickelodeon series, "Unfabulous", and acted opposite John Malkovich in the feature film, "The Great Buck Howard." Nate's first lead role in a feature film, "Drillbit Taylor", with Owen Wilson was released in March 2008.  He completed two additional films, "Role Models" and "South Dakota".

His recent works include guest star roles on Disney's "Hannah Montana" and "JONAS" in 2009 and a recurring role on "Zeke and Luther", on Disney XD. He is also a "Sweet Sixteen" face on a teen driving national commercial for State Farm Insurance. He plays a teen time traveler on a Time Warner Cable commercial.

He won the Young Artists Award for Best Leading Actor in a Feature Film in 2009. He has several projects in film festivals, created with his friends at Prodigy Productionz, a production company operated by teens.

Nate enjoys directing and producing films and hopes to attend a film school, majoring in directing and writing.
