Nathaniel Broughton   I currently split my time between Columbia and St. Louis thanks to my various business ventures being based in Columbia and everything else in my life being in St. Louis. I am happily engaged (check out our wedding site), and Kristi and I will be moving into the Park East Lofts in the Central West End whenever the building is finished. My story is that I started working with some internet-based projects when I came to college and now I help run a variety of web 'influenced' companies. Internet marketing is an industry that is still coming into its own, and it has afforded me a lot of opportunities to launch business ideas and work for myself. I've spearheaded the online marketing efforts for two Inc 500 winners (Show-Me and MRC) and taken part in building 2 companies that we've sold out (Show-Me in '05 and LakeRentals in '07). LakeRentals was the first one that I had a majority ownership in. Over the past 6 years, I've also been blessed to work closely with a pair of brothers who need little introduction, Brock and Brant Bukowsky, not to mention about 100 other amazing people through our various companies. When I'm not typing away on the laptop, you can find me in upscale hipster restaurants, tailgating, snowboarding, San Diego, Vegas, or out on a run somewhere. Oh, I'm in a skateboard gang called the 'Skinflint Montage'. You'll see us around. If you're bored, go read my personal blog The Great Success, but don't take it too seriously.
