Nick Munro, President (USA)
Nick makes Austin Texas his home, but has spent time traveling internationally and living in San Francisco, California. He works in the technology industry, where you can find him designing and sketching a range of new products and services.
When Nick isn’t designing, he loves to travel, which is how he and his wife Cortney found Trailblazer in 2010 while taking a sabbatical in Southeast Asia. He and his wife Cortney volunteered with the Trailblazer foundation building filters and digging wells. That experience left a lasting imprint, and they have contributed to the organization since.
Nick joined the Trailblazer Board in 2019 and is excited to be a part of such a dynamic organization. He looks forward to adding his design and technical expertise to assist Trailblazer in its continued growth and success towards their mission of bringing clean water to the people of Cambodia.
Tatsuma Watson, Vice-President (USA)
Tatsuma was born and raised in a rural rice country of Sendai Japan during its development phase. He now lives in Austin TX, with his wife and toddler daughter. Tatsuma uses his design background to illustrate organizational engagement models or product governance processes to help with communication, a common challenge for mankind.
Outside of home & work, Tatsuma spends his time coaching (and being coached) in the grappling arts. Judo, jiu jitsu, sambo, wrestling, sumo, bokh are ways in which he finds connections with people from different walks of life.
Tatsuma came across Nick’s LinkedIn post about Trailblazer and approached with interest. He joined the Trailblazer board in 2022, and looks forward to using his design skills in socializing Trailblazer’s cause.
