Nat is a scientist, engineer, inventor, and veteran of the semiconductor and aerospace industries. He transitioned into education with a view to developing learning methods that narrow the gap between the classroom and real-world application, and to develop in young minds a scientific mindset critical to understanding and tackling global problems. Since 2014, he has taught engineering, mathematics, and science at Stratford School.
He has worked closely with experts in the US and abroad at Princeton, Penn State, Tohoku University-Japan, NASA, Sandia National Laboratories, and various global tech companies. He has led innovative research, product development, and knowledge creation and dissemination in diverse fields including aerodynamics, materials processing, cryogenics, and semiconductor chip manufacturing.
Nat holds an M.S. and Ph.D. in Aerospace Engineering from Rutgers University and a B.Tech. in Mechanical Engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology-Varanasi. Nat completed his post-doctoral training at the Institute of Fluid Science, Tohoku University-Japan. He is also a graduate of Harvard Business School’s Program for Leadership Development.
