Growing up in Northern Ontario, Nathan was involved in many different teams and clubs, primarily hockey. Hockey runs deep in the Scruton family as his father, Howie played in the NHL. Nathan always wanted to follow his father’s footsteps and play professional hockey, however he soon realized he had different passions in life he wanted to pursue. Nathan began playing football and performing in musicals at his high school St. Charles. This led to Nathan joining, acting in and later working for a local professional theatre company, YES Theatre.

Throughout high school, Nathan’s passion for teaching was apparent. Nathan realized he could take all his passions and put them into one professional career, being a teacher. This sparked the idea of Nathan taking Sports and Physical Education with Concurrent Education at Laurentian University.
