About Coach

Nathan

Originally from the Issaquah–Sammamish area, Coach Nathan began playing soccer at Arena Sports before moving into the competitive side of the game locally. Growing up, he played a variety of sports, helping shape his early understanding of player and personal development.


Nathan holds a USSF C License and plans to pursue his B License. He has experience coaching a wide range of age groups, working with both boys and girls. He brings a positive, detail-oriented approach to each session, emphasizing strong fundamentals and creating an environment where players feel confident to learn and grow. His coaching style is energetic yet calm and understanding, allowing players to be challenged while developing at their own pace.


Nathan believes coaching goes beyond the game. His priority is to help develop good people and responsible young individuals, with the understanding that strong character and habits translate into success both on and off the field.


Outside of coaching, he supports Manchester United and enjoys attending Seattle Sounders FC matches whenever possible.
