Hey! I'm Nick. I was born and raised in Bradenton, Florida, went to school in Philly, and am now starting my career in New York.
A little about me:
I’m the resident ‘Florida Man’ in my circles. For better or worse, I live a lifestyle built on 18 years of beach, footie, and smoothies, which I often find to be quite juxtaposed by the cadence of downtown Manhattan. My parents didn’t attend college, so my big sister paved the way to higher-ed, which ultimately brought me to Penn Engineering.
While at Penn, I enjoyed my time most outside of the classroom. Through club leadership, I fostered community and professional development on campus. In more personal mentorship roles, I enabled first-gen students to achieve their goals. With my founding team at Popeye Labs, I helped create the world’s first auto-monitoring system for commercial vessels, backed by Penn’s VentureLabs.
I’m now entering my second year as a consultant at McKinsey & Co., where most of my work revolves around go-to-market strategy for software companies, including pricing, sales enablement, and tech commercialization. I do miss creating, and imagine I’ll return to the startup environment in the near future…
If I’m not on the job you’ll find me on the field, behind a piano, or off on an adventure. Sport, art, and travel are my go-to’s for breaking the corporate mold, and I spend far too little time on each. I also love to volunteer, lately with iMentor or New York SCORES.
I hope that you enjoy learning more about me and what I do. Don’t be afraid to reach out!
Career work, passion projects, volunteering…

If I’m not on the pitch or in the office, I’m probably thinking about the next journey to embark on… I like documenting them here!
