Nick lost his father at just 7 years old and was homeless soon after. By his early teens, he was selling drugs to survive—and at 16, he stabbed someone and was sentenced to Rikers Island. After reoffending, he served another prison term. But after that second stint, everything changed.
Nick got sober, walked away from the street life, and started over. He launched a moving company, bought real estate, and—alongside his brother—opened one of the most successful jewelry stores in Brooklyn, New York. Today, he’s a clean and sober family man, a father of two, a business owner, and a symbol of what’s possible when you never give up.
In this episode of Rise Above with Kevin Lanning, Nick shares the raw and inspiring story of how he overcame trauma, addiction, violence, and incarceration—and rose above it all.
