Nick joined the San Francisco Gay Men's Chorus (SFGMC) in September 2021, drawn by the chorus's impact through its use of music to inspire activism and resilience during the COVID-19 pandemic. Since then, he has found support and community with his chorus siblings and has tried to give back in time, effort, and dedication to the organization. He sings as a member of The Lollipop Guild, one of the Chorus's celebrated ensemble groups, co-chaired the Membership Retreat Committee, and is a member of the Chorus's drag troupe, the DIVAS, main fundraisers for the singer's financial assistance network, Ryan's Fund
Nick received his Bachelor's of Arts in Sociology with a concentration in Family, Youth and Community Sciences from the University of Florida and his Master’s of Public Administration with a concentration in Healthcare Administration from Cal State University East Bay. He has had the joy of building a career in project management and regulatory compliance with the University of California, San Francisco’s Neurology department as a Clinical Research Manager, overseeing federally-funded memory, aging, and neurodegenerative disease clinical trials and observational studies.
Nick joined the Board as SFGMC’s Member President with plans to lead with goal-directed action, provide an enhanced membership experience through community connecting initiatives and positive collaborative efforts, and contribute a strong and represented voice from the Chorus membership.
