Born to a loving family, Nathan was always curious about almost everything. He would continuously sneak into the station's cargo facilities and get into his fair share of trouble. His life of mischief ended abruptly when he was eleven years old. It was when he learned of the tragedy of Wolf 359 and the destruction of the USS Melbourne, where his Uncle was assigned. From then on, with minor tendencies toward day dreaming and extended holodeck activities, Nathan started on track to following in his Uncle's footsteps and to become an Engineer. He studied technical journals, examined holographic warp cores, and talked with the many freight captains who visited the station. He even helped Dr. Lewis Zimmerman as a part-time lab assistant when he was 15. | Born to a loving family, Nathan was always curious about almost everything.

After a brief stint back in Starfleet serving on the Indria-A, Nathan's thirst for knowledge was too great and he retired from active service to begin work on earning his PhD. After four years of study, he earned a double doctorate in Subspace Mechanics and Warp Theory from Princeton University on Earth. Though he has done several standard papers regarding warp drive and subspace properties, Nathan's focus has turned to understanding new FTL propulsion technology being applied to Starfleet ships. | After a brief stint back in Starfleet serving on the Indria-A, Nathan's thirst for knowledge was too great and he retired from active service to begin work on earning his PhD.
