Nahum grew up in a melting pot- a real one. This multi-lingual environment was cerebral but also literal and oral. So naturally, he desired, since he was a child, to be a scientist, an aspiration he fulfilled specializing in the areas of chemistry, physics, and biology.

Later in life, he discovered that humans cannot live on reason & linear thinking alone, so he went through years of personal transformation. Today, Nahum works on combining creative expressions like storytelling, film, and visual and interactive design with technology, social processes, and strategic planning. He can be still logical (and very much so), but he does it only when it’s appropriate.

Nahum is a Senior Principle Scientist at the MITRE Corporation where he focuses on research and practical applications of presentation and visualization of data and information, as it relates to perception, storytelling, society, and culture. Routinely, he tries very hard not to torture his audience with PowerPoint slides and bully bullets whenever possible.

In his free time, Nahum, among other things, participates in a number of national and international committees. He enjoys life.
