Background
Growing up in rural upstate New York, the outdoors was where Nick spent a lot of time, whether it was going to the lake, camping, or playing in the creek and woods behind their home. Spending so much time outdoors at a young age instilled a love and respect of the outdoors. This love of the outdoors is what drove Nick to move to the West and to join WRA. Accounting is Nick’s second career. His first was working with various nonprofits to support adults and students with special needs, where he really enjoyed being able to help others in these roles. Nick’s first job out of college was working for a large insurance brokerage, where he struggled to find meaning in the work and his accomplishments. He found himself drawn back to the nonprofit sector, where he could have a positive impact and find meaning in his work.
Education
- Bachelor’s in accounting with a minor in small business administration from Colorado State University Global
