Nic is a second-generation Wealth Preservation Specialist. He was fortunate to grow up having witnessed his father act as a trailblazer in an industry we refer to today as Wealth Preservation. This impacted him at an early age and it has now been over forty years since his father first started his practice in 1982. In 2005, Nic decided to launch his own firm and has now helped nearly 1000 families spread across the nation who have entrusted him with their financial wellbeing. Nic’s client base is diverse in both their professional backgrounds & financial needs.

As an athlete, Nic was a highly touted D1 football prospect throughout his high school years with collegiate aspirations cut short due to a severe arch injury. He turned his recovery time into yet another venture and entered into the world of bodybuilding as a top contender. He then sought to inspire and educate other athletes by consulting for the University of Arkansas strength coaches making lifelong friends in the process. Using his extensive experience in sports and life, Nic also enjoyed helping troubled adolescents and under-privileged youth in his community as a “Big Brother” at the local Boys & Girls Club which he fondly lists as one of his top passions.
