Nick attended Wilson Middle School, Appleton West High School, and received an Associate's Degree from UW-Fox Valley. In 2005, he graduated from Ripon College with degrees in political science and business administration. Nick was gifted, and everyone was comfortable around him. That's what gave him the ability to be successful and to enjoy his work in sales. He had been employed by Les Stumpf Ford, Lou's Straight Shot in Menasha, and most recently for West Business Services. Many will also remember Nick for his complex political viewpoints, and for being a staunch supporter of the Republican Party.
Nick enjoyed his writing, playing golf, piano, shooting pool, playing dominoes, reading, cooking (especially grilled brisket), and entertaining friends and family.
