Board Member

Nathan Brown is a Managing Director at Wind Point Partners, a private equity firm that partners with executives to acquire and maximize the potential of middle-market businesses. Nathan joined Wind Point in 1997 and was promoted to Managing Director in 2004.

Nathan became aware of RefugeeOne through Kenilworth Union Church. His first hands-on experience came in 2015, when his family partnered with other church members to co-sponsor 6 refugees from South Sudan. Helping them settle into the U.S. was a fantastic experience for his entire family and they especially cherished the bond they formed with the children. In 2016, Wind Point Partners co-sponsored a Congolese family. The experience has been a great team- and culture-building opportunity for employees.

Nathan and his wife, Barbara, have been living in the Chicago area for over 25 years and have raised three children who are now adults.
