Nick is the Assistant Editor of Bad Acid, an influential force in underground music.   The U.K.-based multimedia publication is responsible for releasing the earliest Electric Wizard and Burning Witch albums—hell yeah!  Nick began working with editor and founder David Gedge in the Summer of 2008. He helps contributors flesh out stories, formats copy, and line-edits submissions. He is also contributing several features, interviews, and reviews to the upcoming issue.  Tab 7 will be released on the Winter Solstice (December 21, 2008).

While interning at KLCC 89.7 FM, Eugene (NPR) from January 2008 to June 2008, Nick edited and produced news stores for “NorthwestPassage” and “News at Noon.”  He generated story ideas, scanned local and Oregon state newspapers for emerging issues, rewrote NorthWest News Network (N3) and A.P. wire stories for broadcast, team edited audio features with the News Director, planned and executed local and national election coverage, and formatted audio features for KLCC.org.  Naturally, broadcasting deadlines were very tight and required a mastering of audio editing software such as Cool Edit Pro and Sony Vegas.

During his year-long stay in Eugene, Oregon, Nick was the Editor for Submissions for InterNationality: A Journal of Critical Global Studies, a nascent academic journal associated by the Political Science department of the University of Oregon.  He generated an in-house style guide, editor guidelines, and fact-checking sheets for the publication.  He also edited submissions and created a flow chart for future editing teams.

After attending a bartending class, Nick approached Mike Perusse C.E.O. about editing his company’s training manuals.  This resulted in Nick’s first copy editing contract.  He copy edited, formatted, and line edited the New England Bartending Schools Training Manual and the Orlando Bartending School Training Manual which are used in classrooms along the East Coast. The Boston school is the city's oldest licensed bartending school.
