Meet The Team

As an enthusiastic participant and advocate in the action sports community, Nick has served on the boards of national and state sporting associations to bring about strategic change. Through his work, he led the NSO for Skateboarding to gold medal success at the Tokyo Olympics and made a significant contribution by creating Australia’s national grassroots action sports league.

With a focus on master planning, capital projects and activation, Nick strongly believes in developing evaluation frameworks that set and measure social and economic targets and outcomes. He has worked with all levels of government (National, State, and local) to create strategies, plans, and systems that increase opportunities for Australians to connect through sports.
