Before starting Imagine Her and jumping to support its growth full-time, Nathan worked at Pangea Educational Development and co-founded Pangea Publishing a social enterprise that focuses on producing and developing learning resources that are culturally and linguistically relevant to the young language learners of Uganda. Nathan recently was nominated MHM Champion 2021 by the SDG Secretariat and the Ministry of Education and Sports Uganda.

He has been recognized as a community-change influencer through the Swedish TV program Lärlabbet and has also been featured on Shoutout Socal Los Angeles and Uganda Radio Network. Nathan holds a Bachelor's Degree in Social Work and Community Development from Kyambogo University where he focused on Social Work and its role in transforming communities and postgraduate diplomas in Social Work from Alison Institute. He is a Perennial Fellow, Opportunity Collaboration Fellow, YALI East Africa Regional Center Alumnus, Robert Bosch Alumnus, Ashoka Xchangemaker Fellow, and Commonwealth Royal Associate Fellow.

He is strongly guided by the principle that true community empowerment is centered on the individual experiencing the problem as the alternate principal designer of the solution.
