Biography

Nathan Gerber is the director of Web Development Services at Utah Valley University (UVU). He and his staff recently launched the university's new website, an introduction that coincided with the 2008 renaming of the institution. As a result, hundreds of thousands of web pages were converted, replaced, or added. Under his guidance and with the support of administration, his team implemented the newly designed website on time, as planned, and within budget. In addition, the team's ability to manage and maintain the new site over the long haul has been greatly improved.

In addition to his web management duties at UVU, Nathan is a web solutions consultant and entrepreneur who specializes in helping educational institutions and businesses build effective and productive web systems. Working on the web since 1993, before web browsers were invented, Nathan has assisted dozens of businesses and educational institutions and also many national, state, and local organizations in creating more effective and productive web solutions based on their needs.

Nathan is also an avid scouter and gardener. For him, being outdoors and working with others in the community helps offset the hours in the office and on a computer. He enjoys his interests, but his greatest joys come from being with his family, and hanging out with his wife. You'll often hear Nathan say, "I've never met any technology that is as good-looking as my wife."
