ROCKstar of the Month of May: Nate Diggins
May’s ROCKstar of the Month is Nate Diggins! Since joining the RTH team three years ago, Nate has grown from being a dancer to an MC, DJ, and technician! He’s a jack-of-all-trades and the kind of coworker who puts a smile on your face and always makes you feel welcome.
“The people I get to work with are really interesting, different, and all bring something to the table. When I’m working an event with my RTH teammates, I’m confident that we can get whatever is needed done!” – Nate Diggins, ROCKstar of the Month
Nate has always been interested in entertainment, so when a friend who worked at Rock The House brought him in to be a dancer and party motivator, he was excited. But what started as a side job has now turned into, as he puts it, “What I want to do for the rest of my life.”
“It’s amazing to be able to share memories with so many different people and be a part of cornerstone events in people’s lives. These are events they’re going to remember for the rest of their lives and being able to share that with them is very rewarding.” – Nate Diggins, ROCKstar of the Month

Of the over 200 events that Nate has worked while at Rock The House, he shared that his favorite was the Girl Scout Lock-In at the SouthPark Mall. Growing up visiting that mall, Nate was amazed to see the space transformed to feel like a concert venue. “It was a blast getting up on stage, introducing people, and watching everyone go crazy,” he said.
When not at RTH, Nate enjoys catching up on sleep, hanging out with friends, and bowling.
“Nate is one of the hardest working employees I have on my team. His communication and willingness to step into many different roles is a testament to his work ethic and talent. He exceeds my expectations and is a great example of someone who puts in the time and effort to earn opportunity.” – Nick Duvé, General Manager, Entertainment Division
