An operator at the intersection of mobility, education, and community.

I'm David Nazaire — CEO and founder of RIDE GOAT Inc., a shared micromobility company I've grown from a local idea to a 55+ city operation generating over $2M in annual revenue. From the streets of New Jersey to markets across the country, my mission is to make clean, efficient transportation accessible.

My career spans micromobility, health technology, aerial solutions, and precision manufacturing — always at the intersection of engineering, operations, and business leadership. I lead a global team across 3 continents and hold a board seat at eWAKA Mobility Limited.

I'm currently completing my Master of Engineering in Engineering Management at CU Boulder through partnerships with Lockheed Martin and Siemens. Outside of work, I serve as an Ordained Elder at Hackettstown SDA Church, teach robotics to middle schoolers, and am a certified Red Cross Lifeguard Instructor.
