Bio: ([email protected], [email protected])
Bluestone Life is Nathan’s fourth company. Prior to Bluestone, he founded and ran a retainer-based fee-only wealth management firm that exclusively served entrepreneurs and closely held business owners. As a Practical Activist, he founded Bluestone because he wanted to help build a company that connected the financial industry to positive systems change. Bluestone’s unique approach shows people how their daily decisions and financial choices impact the health of family, community and planet.
He served in the U.S. Navy which included time on the first nuclear aircraft carrier - the USS Enterprise. The Navy drills into you the virtue of paying attention to detail, and the power of a well-functioning team – and basic training is where it starts.
Born and raised in Vermont, he started Bluestone Life in the Green Mountains so he could reconnect with his heritage, nature, and spend more time with his family. When he’s not reading a book, you’ll find him at one of his favorite local farms like Bread and Butter in Shelburne, or enjoying Vermont with his family.
