About Nate
Author and TED speaker Nathaniel A. Turner, JD, MALS,
is a self-described “Humanity Propulsion Engineer.” Nate is the
author of several books, including the children’s book series, “The
Amazing World of STEM,” and his history-making book, “Raising
Supaman.”
Turner’s appeared in many media outlets, including The Washington
Post, Black Enterprise, iHeartRadio, The Good Men Project, Sirius
XM, and U.S. News & World Report. Corporations, municipalities,
and NGOs like Anthem, Inc., the National Collegiate Athletic
Association, the City of Indianapolis, and the National Society of
Black Engineers invite Nate to share his practical message for
living the life we’ve always imagined while also serving the
greater good.
A modern-day Renaissance Man, as evidenced by the diversity of his
education, including a bachelor in accounting, masters in history
and theology, and doctor of jurisprudence combined with a wide
range of personal experiences and professions, are only part of
what makes his wide-ranging presentations “can’t miss” events. What
truly sets Nate apart from others is his unique oft times comical
ability not only to see the world differently but to challenge his
audiences in an edutaining way to live outside the box so that the
world might be able to experience us at our very best.
As a zealous advocate that every person has an opportunity to
maximize their human potential, Nate regularly shares through
books, courses, workshops, and conferences a backward design life
process initially created to help his unborn child become a great
global citizen and meet the rigorous educational requirements of
the top colleges and universities without means of wealth,
privilege, legacy status, fraud, bribery, cheating or Adobe
Photoshop.
Turner’s son not only met Harvard’s admission benchmarks (i.e.,
test scores in the top 1%, 33 college credits by his junior year,
proficiency in four languages, left home after his junior year to
play soccer in Brazil; and started a foundation to address teen
homelessness); he eviscerated the profiled criterion by his
sixteenth birthday. At present, Turner’s son is a third-year
Electrical and Computer Engineering Ph.D. candidate at one of the
world’s premier graduate engineering schools. Today, those tools,
techniques, and strategies initially created to help his Gen Zer
thrive in the Fourth Industrial Revolution are educational and life
development staples for students and parents of all ages and
organizations worldwide.
