“Sometimes on the way to your dream, you get lost and find a better one.”
– Lisa Hammond

Nathan spent more than ten years pursuing single parenthood in India and Canada. At one point in this journey, he was even lucky enough to use a known Egg Donor. His family was completed in 2021 through the help of surrogacy and egg donation. He is a proud single dad by choice to two daughters (Nanette & Neptune) and a son (Newton).  He is empathetic to the Intended Parents’ journey to surrogacy because he personally understands the challenges.

Nathan takes great pride in supporting  Intended Parent(s), including many single men who are now proud fathers using his surrogacy and egg donation services. He has an extensive network and a very charismatic and unique way of connecting with women who are looking to help others. His passion to help others is what helps connect these Intended Parent(s) to their Surrogates or Egg Donors.

A native Calgarian, Nathan returned to his hometown in 2012 after 11 years abroad, half of which was in Norway. He possesses degrees in commerce (McGill), education (University of Illinois), and disability studies (York) and associate diplomas in Speech & Drama (Trinity College UK) and cello performance (Royal Conservatory Toronto).

Nathan brings to the Proud Fertility Team, diverse working experience in the fields of Human Resources, finance and controllership, communications, and disability research. He has much expertise in the area of training and development. He has designed and facilitated courses in the past in such topics including intercultural communication, ethics, and occupational health. He is also a relentless supporter of diverse communities including GLBTIPQ and disability communities.

Nathan has a strong passion for learning about different cultures, has had the opportunity to visit more than 90 countries, and speaks English, Norwegian, and Cantonese fluently, and intermediate French. He is also an accomplished visual artist, best known for his signature Aurora Borealis series. He is also the author of Nanette’s Barrette, a children’s story.
