My History

Nathan credits his father for a great work ethic and respect for education.

Nathan Dougherty grew up in a loving, working class family, neither of his parents were able to graduate from high school and worked hard to put food on the table and keep a roof over his head. 

Nathan has fought hard to overcome personal and family hardships. His father became disabled when Nathan was 11 years old, and he went from a middle class life style to extreme poverty. While his father was suffering from heart problems his mother started a small family business where Nathan worked on weekends and summers.

After high school Nathan became an electrical apprentice, he still has calluses on his hands from digging ditches and pulling wire. During these times Nathan’s parents always encouraged him to go to college. 

Before Nathan decided to go to college he burned his arms on oven doors as a cook, as well as worked in the hot sun all day as a laborer. Nathan heard “No” a thousand times a day as a telemarketer, and all the while kept a level head during the chaos of working as a server.
