(AND TACO CONNOISSEUR)
I HATE READING, SHOW ME YOUR WORK
Hello! If the url didn’t give it away, I’m Nick! I’m a New Jersey musician turned Los Angeles writer, director, producer, and taco connoisseur. My obsessive curiosity has led me to many diverse corners of the media & entertainment landscape.
In addition to being the World's Greatest Dogsitter (voted on by me and a few of my friends' dogs), I also manage operations as co-owner of the award-winning production company, Blue Kite Cinema. We've serviced 50+ clients, creating commercials that have accumulated over $50M in product sales, social content that has amassed over 6 million views, and recently served as Executive Producer for the multi-season UPtv hit docuseries, Our Wedding Story. I'm currently producing a musically-empowered independent feature film, Singing in My Sleep.
Thanks to quarantine, additional hobbies include playing piano, becoming a plant dad, and sneaking up on my roommate with a Nerf gun. Highly suggest taking up the latter hobby.
I’m incredibly passionate about the work we create, about telling stories that color outside the lines, that challenge us, gut-punch us and connect us with each other.
If you wanna work on something, challenge me to a taco-eating contest, or just say hi, I’d love to connect!
