A LITTLE
DISCIPLINE.
A LOT OF
PERSONALITY.

01 / THE PERSON

Yes, all of that
is one person.

I’m Nate Casimiro, also known as Nathen Casimiro and Maybenater, based in Phoenix, Arizona. I’ve served with City Year Los Angeles through AmeriCorps and in the National Guard, built a career in marketing, and found a home behind the mic.

Off the clock: the gym, tattoos, travel, and a good tabletop game. On Daft Monks, that means following a conversation somewhere unexpected—and committing to the bit.

in the classroom.

CORPS MEMBER · AUG 2009–JUN 2010

Before the National Guard, I spent a year serving with City Year Los Angeles as an AmeriCorps corps member. I completed more than 1,900 hours of service as a full-time tutor and mentor to students in Los Angeles.

A chapter of my life centered on students, community, and showing up.

Same person.

01

A disciplined side.

National Guard experience and a lasting interest in fitness. The part of me that likes to put in the work.

02

A curious side.

A marketer’s interest in people: what gets their attention, what makes them tick, and what happens next.

03

A ridiculous side.

Podcast conversations, improv characters, and stories that rarely take the sensible route.

02 / THE PHOTO PORTFOLIO

One person.
More than one look.

Portraits for a first impression. A few moments that tell the rest of the story. Open any photograph for a closer look or a download.

CASTING & PAGEANT INQUIRIES

A face to remember.
A story to ask about.

Service, fitness, a creative streak, and a willingness to follow a conversation somewhere unexpected. Those are the threads that connect my life in Phoenix to my life behind the mic.
