Nate has loved computers since he was a child; his father worked at Radio Shack and he was constantly there playing on the machines and learning about programming. He got his B.S. in Computer Studies, carrying that fascination from childhood into his adult career. After overseeing services related to software and automation engineering for over twenty years, he now has the honor and pleasure of leading the Center of Excellence for WWT's services-related engineering organization. His focus is promoting excellence in everything that we do, from our processes and practices to our internal and external communications. Most recently, he and his team have been heavily leveraging generative AI to make a discernable difference in our quality and productivity, and are looking forward to continuing to explore new ways of being awesome.
