Nathan Fielder

About

I’m Nathan Fielder—CPA‑in‑Recovery, hyper‑realistic rehearsal architect, and the only management consultant banned from three separate chambers of commerce and nominated for an Emmy. After graduating from the University of British Columbia at the top of my class, I pivoted from traditional accounting to “enhanced reality strategy.” In practice, that means designing meticulously staged business experiments that blur the line between market research and business friendship.
