[edit] Personal
The first thing people realize when they see Nathan is that he is bald and very tall (6’5”). Then they think he looks like Anthony Edwards or Chris Elliot from the movie Cabin Boy. From there people learn that Nathan can be a very sarcastic person with a very, very dry sense of humor. Nathan’s Home life right now consists of himself, his wife (Christy), their daughter (Katherine), and a rabbit named Miss Bunn.
