Nick received his BS in Biology from the University of North Carolina - Chapel Hill. Outside of lab, he devotes the majority of his time to planning his next backpacking adventure (both the hiking and world-traveling types). Since he’ll never actually be able to find the money or time for those trips, he instead spends his free time playing the banjo and other instruments, making home renovations, and trying to clicker train his stubborn cat. If all goes as planned, he recommends following his newly-trained adventure cat’s Instagram influencer account.
