Nathan Liu
President and Executive Director
Nathan is a dedicated advocate for the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals, and is committed to using his passion for technology to protect the environment. He believes that combining scientific innovation with empathy and human-centered approaches is key to solving today's most pressing problems. In addition to his interest in music and sports, Nathan has also founded the Silvanus Foundation, a youth-led nonprofit organization focused on wildfire prevention, climate change awareness, and sustainability. Through this organization, Nathan aims to inspire young people to become more engaged in creating a sustainable future.
Nathan is also the founder and committee chairman of the Tribute to Fallen Heroes annual benefit events, as well as the JV basketball team captain at The Harker School. His research focuses on wildfire prevention and sustainability, and he has been recognized for his work in this field. His 2020 research on "Using AI to Distinguish Between Human-Caused and Natural Fires" and 2021 research on "A Scientific Method to Demystify the Lightning-Caused 2020 August Complex Fire & EVT Theorem to Predict the Extreme Event" were both published in the Synopsys Science Research Championship. Nathan's 2022 research, "How Augmented Reality Helps Sustainability Development in Everyday Life," will be published in The Harker Research Symposium.
When he's not working on his research or running his nonprofit organization, Nathan enjoys playing sports and music. He has been playing piano for 11 years, saxophone for 4 years, and has been playing basketball and golf for 8 years. Nathan is also an avid fan of football and baseball. Additionally, he enjoys playing chess, designing logos, and editing videos in his free time.
