About Nathan.
Nathan Crankfield was born and raised in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. He is the youngest of his father’s seven children birthed by five different mothers. Nathan grew up with serious anxiety due to his unstable home environment and poor life choices.
Despite his troubles, he secured an Army ROTC scholarship which allowed him to pay his way through Mount St. Mary’s University.
Upon graduation, he was commissioned as an infantry officer and went on to Fort Benning, GA where he completed infantry training, Airborne School, and Ranger School. He then transitioned to Fort Bragg’s 82nd Airborne Division where he served as a platoon leader for three years, including a combat deployment to Afghanistan.
From an early age, Nathan knew he wanted to set a new standard for his family, breaking generations of addiction, prison sentences, broken families, and unfulfilled potential. His accomplishments in the Army served as a foundation for a purpose driven life in which he shares the secrets to personal and organizational excellence with audiences across the country.
Nathan contributes his successes to leadership skills that have allowed him to build a fulfilling career in sales leadership and a wonderful home life. Nathan is now happily married with two young children, a son and a daughter. He hosts the podcast Seeking Excellence with Nathan Crankfield and serves as the Senior Sales Manager at Hallow, the #1 prayer app in the world. He is also a motivational speaker, writer, and executive coach.
