Early Life and Career

Born in Washington, D.C. to two working-class parents, Nate moved to New Orleans in 2001 to continue a long-distance relationship which quickly went south leaving Nate with two options: 

1. Return to Washington, D.C. and start over in comfort with ease and little effort or 2. Start over in a city and state he knew nothing about, where his only friends were those of his ex and use his experience to build a life and (hopefully) find happiness.

Nate chose option two and although it’s been bumpy ride, it’s a ride that he doesn’t regret and that he credits with making him the man he is today – decent, honest, caring, respectful, focused.

For all of the almost 20 years that Nate has lived in New Orleans he has worked in Tourism and Hospitality, most significantly as a Manager for a “Five Diamond” rated hotel property where he directly managed a staff of more than 60 employees and a seven-figure department budget. 

It was that experience – successfully managing someone else’s business and someone else’s money – that gave Nate the idea of doing it for himself and 2018 he began to create the concept and the plan, bringing it all to fruition in January 2020 – yes, the beginning of the year that would be the start of a world-wide pandemic. 

Our first year in business has been a good year as we continue to build our business and our relationships with our vendors and our customers. Providing honest, reliable service with quality affordable products and services is our number one goal as Nate aims to “treat others as he wants to be treated.”
