Nathan Ivey

Nathan J. Ivey is a Senior Simulation Consultant with Rockwell Automation’s Arena simulation team. Throughout his career, Nathan has applied simulation to key initiatives while working at Walt Disney Parks and Resorts in Lake Buena Vista, FL and at FedEx Ground Pittsburgh PA. He has consulted on projects in a wide range of industries including logistics, warehousing, distribution, hospitality, food and beverage, healthcare, and manufacturing. Nathan earned both a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in Industrial Engineering from the Pennsylvania State University. While at Penn State, Nathan first learned both SIMAN and Arena from Dr. Russell Barton, Dr. Dave Christy, Dr. Catherine Harmono-sky, and Dr. Ben Kleindorfer. He thought he knew Arena when he took his first role at Systems Modeling. However, it was there that he really learned the “in’s and out’s” of Arena and simulation consulting. When not simulating, Nathan enjoys spending time with his family, biking, or play-ing guitar in one of his many musical projects
