Nick first became interested in acting when his mom pushed him to audition for a community theatre production of "Pirates of Penzance". Nick was cast as a pirate and instantly fell in love with the stage. He began studying acting on weekends and taking theatre and jazz performance in high school. When he and his entire family were selected for a national WalMart/Sony PS2 commercial, Nick realized he preferred the camera to the stage. Despite being offered a full academic scholarship to a university, Nick decided to move to Los Angeles to pursue his love of film and television. He does not regret his decision.
