He grew up in Mola di Bari in Southern Italy. After studying Informatics and Digital Communication in Bari by the Adriatic sea, he left for Rome where he started his professional life as an IT consultant. A place frequently associated with neorealist cinema and legendary names like Fellini, de Sica or Rosselini, the “Eternal City” fuelled Nico’s interest in Cinema and Photography. Driven by this passion and seeking for a new inspiration, he moved on to Berlin, where he is currently pursuing a career as a freelance photographer and cinematographer.
