Nathan began his musical journey studying piano at age 7 by taking private lessons. After years of private lessons he attended Pinellas County Center for the Arts at Gibbs High School, where he discovered his joy for learning, teaching and performing music with others.  He learned quintessential music skills and participated in performance ensembles as a pianist and vocalist. At the University of Tampa (UT), Nathan studied Piano Performance with pianist Grigorios Zamparas. Both as a soloist and chamber musician, Nathan focused on using technique and movement to play expressively and efficiently.  He received both academic and musical scholarship at UT and was a recipient of the Marvin Hamlisch Piano Award.
