Nathan is a queer comedian and writer from Atlanta who now lives in Brooklyn. He’s known for his gay infused characters online and amassed followers from his viral “Guy Fucks His Bully’s Dad” piece as a part of UCB’s Characters Welcome. As someone who went off online with very specific gay humor, Nathan wants to sit down with other queers to discuss their funny moments that took off.
