Nick is an award-winning circus artist that prides himself on physically and emotionally powerful performances. He is currently living his dream as an aerialist for messi10 by cirque du soleil.

During one of his thrilling strings of whooshy momentum composed of split-second tricks, you may forget to blink or breathe. Yet, he balances his performances by weaving in carefully crafted moments to connect with you and remind you that despite his incredible athleticism, he is in fact, still human.

Even before he enters the space, he’ll draw you in with his presence, perhaps donning his rainbow poncho, colorful braids, or bright smile. He’ll welcome you to use one of his self-care tools or show you pictures of his dog and best friend, Mr. President.

Starting his circus career in Austin, TX and now based in the Midwest, he has toured throughout the US and abroad, training, teaching, competing, and performing in over 50 spaces with hundreds of internationally renowned movement artists. Shifting away from his former career as a Registered Dietitian in 2016, he has now worked with Dolly Parton, Acrobatic Conundrum, Blue Lapis Light, along with several circus companies and schools throughout the United States. Currently, he is a Corde Lisse Specialist for the tour of Messi10 by Cirque du Soleil. Additionally, he has appeared in Kesha’s lyric video for “Here Comes the Change” and Fort Never’s music video “Trapped in Gold.”

Nick is on a never-ending pursuit to refine his movement and presence and learn new ways to tell stories. Because, beyond Nick’s rigorous training and dedication, he desires to share those stories and inspire you to follow your dreams, look deeper within yourself, and leave the world a better place for future generations. Nick is following his dream. Let him bring you on an adventure.
