When crisis and catastrophe are at the door, some people flee from peril and others run straight into the line of fire. Nate Boaz's gripping memoir, Running Toward Fire, chronicles a journey of profound courage, sacrifice, and self-discovery. From a young boy inspired by his war-hero grandfathers to a Marine leading intelligence operations in combat, Boaz's narrative is as riveting as it is deeply introspective. Reflecting on intense memories of service and war, Nate grapples with the enigmatic beauty of combat, the weight of duty, and a deep but forgotten longing for camaraderie. Growing up in the shadows of heroes, Nate's path was shaped early on by family tales of valor and service. But it's his personal experiences-from the polished floors of the Naval Academy to the deadly streets of Baghdad-that form the crux of his story. Throughout the memoir, Nate examines the anarchy of war, the nuances of leadership, and the cost of service. Whether he's recounting harrowing battles, the emotional rescue of American POWs, or the quiet introspection that follows, Boaz captures the essence of a warrior's heart. Yet the book is more than just a war memoir-it's a clarion call for understanding and supporting the heroes among us; the very men and women who, when others sheltered and all was lost, picked up a rifle and ran toward the sounds of chaos. If you have wondered what drives a person to seek danger or serve something bigger than themselves, Running Toward Fire is an inspirational testament to what created the heroes around you today, and how you can carry part of the load.

Autorenporträt
Nate Boaz navigates the realms of human potential and tech innovation as the Vice President of People Strategy at Microsoft, yet his odyssey began on a vastly different terrain. As a U.S. Naval Academy graduate, Nate served as a Counterintelligence / Human Intelligence Officer in the U.S. Marine Corps, participating in Operations Enduring Freedom and Iraqi Freedom. During two decades in the corporate realm, Nate found his narrative veering back to the profound lessons gleaned on the battlefield, channeling these insights into his writing. His journey led him through roles as a Partner at McKinsey & Company, a Senior Managing Director at Accenture, and a Managing Director at Roark Capital Private Equity Firm, before nestling into his current position at Microsoft. An alumnus of Harvard Business School, Nate's voracious pursuit of knowledge and personal growth remains unabated. Outside the corporate world, Nate's heart beats for veteran welfare and storytelling. He serves on the Board of Patrol Base Abbate, a veteran nonprofit dedicated to providing "a place for those who served." His proudest roles, however, are those of a father and a writer, continually exploring the tapestry of global affairs, leadership, and personal growth on his Medium blog.
