Biography

After moving to downtown Vancouver, Nathan began attending St. Paul’s and eventually chose to make it his home parish. St. Paul’s became especially meaningful to him when he was married at the church.

Having grown up in the Anglican tradition and served in the church in his younger years, Nathan has found reconnecting with that tradition to be an important part of his spiritual growth. Over the years, he has explored many aspects of religion and spirituality and has found renewed meaning in the faith and traditions that shaped his early life.

Nathan especially appreciates the traditional services at St. Paul’s and the sense of peace the church provides. For him, St. Paul’s offers a welcoming place of reflection and spiritual grounding amid the demands of everyday life.

As Associate Warden, Nathan hopes to contribute to the continued growth and vitality of St. Paul’s while supporting the parish under the guidance of its dedicated clergy and lay leadership.

Nathan is a business owner and lives in Vancouver’s West End with his wife, Masha. Outside of work and parish life, they enjoy travelling together and exploring new places.
