Keynote Speaker-Coach Nate Loenser, Nebraska Men's Basketball

You Are Invited To Be Inspired

At Our Keynote Address

Innovation Campus – Lincoln

This year, we are honored to welcome Nate Loenser, Assistant Men’s Basketball Coach for the Nebraska Cornhuskers, as our keynote speaker.

Coach Loenser describes himself as a lifelong learner and someone who strives to be a “giver, not a taker.” His message extends well beyond the basketball court, emphasizing:

  • Making the most of every opportunity
  • Building others through intentional personal development
  • “Being seen by being unseen” - focusing on doing the work rather than seeking the credit
  • Facing adversity with resilience and purpose

His experiences in competitive athletics translate seamlessly to the dental profession. A successful basketball team depends on trust, communication, preparation, and each person understanding their role, much like a thriving dental office. When every team member commits to a shared goal and supports one another, excellence follows.

Coach Loenser’s life story reflects these principles, having overcome early physical challenges, excelling in athletics, and building a respected coaching career grounded in adaptability, humility, and hard work.

Join us for an energizing and inspiring start to our Annual Meeting. We look forward to seeing you there!
