Nicholas is a product focused data scientist & experience designer working at the intersection of immersive art, consciousness research & social impact.
The mission in all the work he creates, regardless of form or medium, is to place the individual within universal experiences that speak to relevant social issues, & thereby ask the individual to consider their responsibility within a larger whole. He seeks to challenge the individual to find empathy & connection to others' experience & believes that immersive experiences (whether live, digital or mixed reality) are a strong conduit for provoking thought & response.
Nicholas has been in the experience design industry since 2012, graduated with an MBA in Leadership & Managing Organizational Change in 2014 from Pepperdine University, & completed the Metis Data Science immersive in September 2019.
