At Nautilus, Hall worked on cruise ship projects for Seabourn, Costa Asia, and Carnival, a theatre consultation for St. Augustine's High School, and most recently, the Harry Potter Nighttime Lights show at Universal Studios Hollywood.

Hall was pursuing a post-graduate engineering degree in acoustics from Pennsylvania State University at the time of his death.

Jim Tetlow, president of Nautilus Entertainment Design states, "Although Nate had only been with us for a year, he was an important member of our team and on the fast track for a key management position in the company. We will miss his knowledge, perseverance, people skills and great attitude."

Hall is survived by his mother and father, Norine and Mark Hall and brother, Matt.
