Nate is an enthusiastic and dedicated landscape architect and project manager. He is emerging in the firm as a leader in design. His thoroughness and energy has brought fresh design thinking to a wide variety of projects, from public open spaces to private development work. “Walker Macy’s experience in the Northwest attracted me as a professional, and as a native of the region.” Nate balances his design knowledge with substantial technical capabilities. He has been working on a series of high-budget, complex public projects including schools, urban open spaces, and mixed-use development. “Designing landscapes for the public is my passion,” says Nate. “I feel satisfaction in creating places that engage the greater community.”
