People of Purpose


Connecting people to their unique human experience through Purpose.

Jan 19, 2019

Jace Nath is a 19 year old junior studying at the University of the Pacific. He is majoring in International Studies with a concentration in International Relations, and is minoring in Chinese. A Stockton native, Jace has had the wonderful privilege of being able to travel around the world and familiarize himself with new places. Since his childhood, Jace has had a passion for learning languages and immersing himself in foreign cultures and traditions. Coming from a multiethnic background himself, he has always found it interesting how different people groups have interacted with each other throughout history, how this has led to the rise of different social issues and innovations over time, and what can be done to improve these things. Currently, he speaks 6 languages and is working to advance himself in these languages and several more. He hopes to, one day, work with others to bridge cultural gaps and promote understanding of the great beauty that can be found within diversity. Jace seeks to inspire others to show a love for humanity through the inspiration of faith, virtue of patience, and a general desire of peace.
