Our Story

NNCS is a Native-led and Native-owned consulting firm that shares a deep understanding and connection with the San Gabriel Mountains. Owners, Nathan & Kevin Nunez are documented lineal descendants of the San Gabriel Mountain village and clan, Xaapchivitam. Xaapchivit, a principal clan located in the heart of the San Gabriel Mountains, is one of two historical Serrano clans that occupy the Eastern San Gabriel Mountains: Xaapchivitam & Amutskupeatam. The Nunez family has eight generations of unbroken connectivity and relationship with the San Gabriel Mountains. This connectivity is shown through a deep oral history, cold water traditions, traditional gatherings, and active stewardship and protection of their ancestral homeland. This work has translated into involvement in many projects within Los Angeles County and their ancestral homeland of the Eastern San Gabriel Mountains.
