Starting work under the family business from a young age, Nick quickly transitioned from base-level cleaning to a supervisor role. This led to the opportunity to spend 3 months in Whistler to be part of the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics, where he would assume the position of venue manager for Whistler Celebration Plaza responsible for cleaning and snow removal. During the event he was the lead responsible for 80 staff full-time. Whilst the event period only lasted for some 18 days, the deployment was complex and entailed a full three months of planning, contractor selection, education of workforce and motivation of the team.
