My name is Fr Nathaniel Haslam. I was born in Harrisburg, PA in 1976. After studying electrical and mechanical engineering at RPI and graduating in 1997, I worked for over a year at Xerox in Rochester, NY. After entering the Legionaries of Christ in 1999, I had the blessing to study for one year (2001) at the College of Humanities in Cheshire, CT. This was an amazing experience especially due to the quality professors who taught with a love and enthusiasm far superior to what I had encountered in both high school as well as the prestigious university of RPI. After further studies of philosophy and a 3-year pastoral internship in the northeast US, studied theology in Rome for four years. During my years in Rome, I had the opportunity to found and direct a college leadership study abroad programs at the Universita Europea di Roma. While there, I also helped organize and coordinate the first ever Vatican Executive Summit (June 2011) held in the Vatican Gardens. During this historic event, over 50 top CEOs and international business executives discussed the financial crisis and business ethics in the light of Pope Benedict’s landmark document, Caritas in Veritate (Charity in the Truth). I was ordained at Christmas 2010 with the Legionaries of Christ and moved to Texas the following summer. Now in the US, I am the National Business Ethics Advisor for the US Hispanic Chamber of Commerce as well as Houston chaplain for the Lumen Institute (www.lumeninstitute.org). I assist Texas area business leaders through personal coaching and advising in the areas of faith, character (integrity, stewardship, prudential decision making, perseverance) and leadership so as to have a ‘Business Plan for Life’ and not just their company. Additionally, I also advise small-to-large Fortune 500 companies in the creation and application of business ethics policies. Lastly, I also serve as the Local Coordinator of Apostolate and Board Chair for the Regnum Christi Movement in Houston.
