Who is Natan Gesher?

My name is Natan Gesher, but you might know me as Nathan Gessner, since I changed my name when I moved to Israel in July 2004.

Where is Natan Gesher?

In the past decade and a half, I’ve moved around a bit: two intercontinental moves between the United States and Israel in 2004 and 2011; four transcontinental moves from Maryland to San Francisco in 2011, San Francisco to New York in 2013, New York to Seattle in 2017 and Seattle to New York in 2018; and three smaller moves between apartments in Jerusalem and San Francisco in 2005 and 2012, and from Jerusalem to Tel Aviv in 2006. It looks cleaner as a bullet list:

  • 2018 – present: Kips Bay, New York
  • 2017 – 2018: Belltown, Seattle
  • 2013 – 2017: Murray Hill, New York
  • 2011 – 2013: San Francisco
    • 2012 – 2013: Lower Haight
    • 2011 – 2012: SoMa
  • 2006 – 2011: Central Tel Aviv
  • 2004 – 2006: Jerusalem
    • 2005 – 2006: Downtown
    • 2004 – 2005: Baka
  • 1999 – 2003: New York
    • 2001 – 2003: NoHo
    • 2001: Greenwich Village
    • 2000: Financial District
    • 1999 – 2000: Greenwich Village
  • 1982 – 1999: Rockville MD
  • 1981 – 1982: Washington DC

What does Natan Gesher do?

Vocationally, I’ve been working for internet companies since 2006 and have been in search engine optimization since 2008 and product management since 2011. I really enjoy helping to make the web better, one site at a time, so I expect to be doing it for quite a while.

Before that, I was a history student and spent a while working at an archeological excavation in Jerusalem.

Avocationally, I like taking my dog Sharav on long walks, reading books, taking pictures, cooking, tinkering, muttering, puttering, prattling, nattering, sending and collecting postcards, writing, conducting zero-blind n=1 self-experiments, ignoring politics and watching football.
