About Nolan

Nolan spent his childhood in a 2-stoplight town nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia, where he was known for his boundless imagination from a young age. 

 

Despite his love for sports, Nolan never excelled on the basketball court. However, his high school varsity basketball coach recognized his talent for videography and offered him a unique opportunity - to film the games and travel with the team. This experience sparked a new dream within Nolan, to attend his favorite childhood university, Virginia Tech, and join the filming team for the Hokies football program.

 

After years of hard work, Nolan achieved his dream and was awarded a full scholarship to join the Virginia Tech athletics video department. He pursued a degree in Multimedia Journalism and later went on to earn his masters in education while managing a team of over 70 students as a content producer.

 

Although Nolan had found his dream job at Virginia Tech, his passion for storytelling led him to pursue a new opportunity with the U.S. Travel Association. Here, he worked as an in-house video producer and collaborated with some of the biggest names in the travel industry, including Disney Parks, Delta Air Lines, and Carnival Cruise Lines.

 

Today, Nolan draws from his experiences leading and motivating teams, as well as his expertise in storytelling, to help organizations cultivate a culture of dreaming big that keeps employees more connected to each other & their organizations.

 

Nolan is sharing his knowledge of how to unleash the potential of a dream and is spreading that message in organizations all across America.
