I've always known I wanted to pursue a creative path, and my journey began with a passion for art that was recognized and encouraged by my peers from a young age. Choosing art as my major in high school was a no-brainer, and it led me to Mass Art, where I not only honed my artistic skills but also discovered my love for teaching. I wanted to share my passion with others, so I started offering art classes to young students, which brought me great joy.

However, I soon realized that my salary as an art teacher was not sustainable, and that's when I decided to explore the emerging world of the Internet. Taking a leap of faith, I returned to school to study graphic design and web design, and thus, Click-on-Nik was born. I was ahead of the curve, and while people were still wrapping their heads around the concept of the Internet, I patiently waited for them to catch on.

During this time, I continued teaching, sharing my knowledge of art history at Katherine Gibbs University. My patience paid off, and soon, my web design business took off. I had the privilege of working with renowned healthcare institutions and creating websites for small businesses, witnessing the tangible impact of my skills on their success. My career took me to the fast-paced world of the Staples Ad Agency and then to one of my most remarkable experiences—rebuilding the website for the Massachusetts State House. It was a dream come true to work on such a significant project, and I felt a sense of pride in contributing to the state's political landscape.

Now, as I continue to reside in Wilmington, MA, with my loving family, I embrace a diverse career as an artist, teacher, and photographer, grateful for the journey that has brought me here.
