Episode 071: Nate Boyer – Green Beret, Texas Football, The NFL, Making Films
**A Special Veterans Day Episode** Nate Boyer leads a remarkable life. He’s been all over the world working hard to help others and defend our country. Nate truly values passion and having no compromise when going after your vision. He has proven that he will stop at nothing in order to achieve it. We are extremely fortunate to have Nate share his vision with us, the loyal listeners of The Learning Leader Show.
In 2004, Nate Boyer became a relief worker in Sudan, building camps for refugees of the War in Darfur. After a short tenure there, he enlisted in the United States Army, training at Fort Benning, and later was accepted into the Green Berets. After multiple tours in both Iraq and Afghanistan, Boyer earned an honorable discharge after six years of service. During that period of time, Nate walked on to the football team at the University of Texas where he earned the position of starting long snapper. After his college career was complete, Nate was signed by the Seattle Seahawks as an undrafted free agent.
