Nat Fernandes

Senior Associate, Marketing & Communications

As Senior Associate of Marketing & Communications, Nat partners with teams across the organization to highlight REDF’s work, extraordinary partners, and more. From editing videos to curating stories, Nat’s your person. Their approach to the work centers on one question: how can/should/do we use honest storytelling to advance social change?

Exploring that question has taken Nat to many places including some time in Nicaragua and Colombia where they worked with WaterAid, a nonprofit that focuses on water, sanitation, and hygiene access. There, they spent their time in communities gathering stories in multimedia formats. They also worked at Nonprofit Finance Fund (NFF) where they led a video interview series between NFF staff and nonprofit and philanthropy leaders. Nat’s love and curiosity for people and their stories is at the heart of their work.

Nat holds a B.A. in economics from Rutgers University. Outside of work, they enjoy spending time behind their camera lens, admiring the sky whenever it’s the right shade of dark blue, climbing, and spending time with loved ones (including their two cats).
