Meet Nate Lewis
A True Local
Hi, I'm Nate Lewis and I was raised right here in the Coachella Valley. My first job was in Rancho Mirage, and I now own and operate a business out of Rancho Mirage. I graduated from Dixie State University where I studied Business Administration and was a Scholarship Athlete. My professional and Business experience is right here in the Coachella Valley. As the Chief Operating Officer and Chief Revenue Officer at the two largest solar companies in the valley, I have helped create hundreds of jobs and have had the opportunity to be very involved with our other local businesses. I dedicated 6 years of service to the Rancho Mirage Chamber of Commerce where I served on the executive board for 5 years and Chairman of the Board in 2022 guiding our local businesses out of the Covid Pandemic. In addition to the business community, I volunteer time to youth sports organizations to help support and prepare our future leaders. Rancho Mirage is where I live, do business and give back.
