Nick specialises in vertical video and equipping reporters with the skills to reach giant audiences on social media. He’s an award-winning producer with experience at VICE, BuzzFeed, MTV, Network 10, and Junkee. As someone who grew up in regional NSW, Nick is passionate about local news, because he has seen first-hand the impact to a community when they lack a local voice in media.
