Stan Dura Assessment Program Manager at Western Governors University
"One of the most impressive and powerful of Nate's attributes was his sense of initiative. Nate was remarkably motivated to do whatever he was doing - very, very well. He was very conscientious about his work and prided himself on being known as competent, reliable and trustworthy. These are difficult qualities to train for, and possessing them makes Nate an even greater asset to any organization."

Jackie McHargue Dean of Students at UNC Asheville
"I've had the opportunity to work with Nate in three capacities -- he was an RA for me when I worked at Appalachian, he provided temporary administrative support for our Housing and ResEd office at UNC Asheville, and is now a colleague here, working in Admissions. Nate has always proven to be hardworking, caring and willing to do whatever it takes to lend a hand. He is reliable and truly cares about students."

"Having collaborated with Nate on more than a few projects for the University of North Carolina at Asheville's Office of Admissions and Financial Aid, I can say I believe that Nate is easily one of the best members of the team. His passion, focus and drive are unmatched by anyone you've ever worked with, I guarantee it. Under his leadership, the Open House for UNC Asheville has grown on an annual basis above and beyond anyone's expectations. Nate is truly great."

Maggie Cumby Student Ambassador Director at UNC Asheville
"Nate was my superior at the University of North Carolina Asheville Admissions Office. I was one of three Directors of Student Ambassadors. He was an amazing leader and instructor. As a student in a position of leadership, I could not have asked for a better supervisor—he listened and helped our team with the ideas and changes we wanted to implement into the program. He allowed us to take advantage of the opportunity we were given by being present and supportive. With Nate’s encouragement and supervision we were able to expand the program into the more progressive and successful venture that it is today. He taught me what it is to be a leader. Over the three years that I worked on his team, Nate fostered a fun and friendly atmosphere not only for the visiting families but for the student ambassadors as well."
