Nick completed his BTEC ND Graphic Design at Plymouth College of Art in 1999 and went on to study BA (Hons) Graphic Design & Communication at the Surrey Institute of Art and Design in Epsom. He then moved to London and began work as an art director in advertising and soon he was working for clients such as Budweiser, Honda, Sky and Britvic.

However, the South West was calling and he returned home to Cornwall to co-found Voice Group. Voice is one of Cornwall's leading creative agencies, producing work for the likes of Fifteen Cornwall and Rick Stein. The agency has recently received design awards for its work with Looe Music Festival and runs a challenging and successful design and copywriting internship programme.
