My name is Natalie Stangl. A lot of people call me “Nat” for short. I am a born and raised Minnesotan with an accent thicker than a pint of Paulaner beer. As a true Minnesotan, my biggest strength is adaptability. Have you ever been to Minneapolis in the middle of January? While most would shutter at the thought of -27 degree wind chill I, like many Minnesotans, embrace it. I’m the first one out on the lake playing pick-up hockey with my family, charging through two feet of snow with my seven-year old golden retriever and warming up by a roaring fire when the day’s activities are done. I am an adaptable, loyal, and fierce woman of “The North”.
