    Topic: Experiences in Entrepreneurship
     
    Graduating from UConn in 2003 with a B.S. in Management Information Systems, Nick worked as a TECDP Associate at Cigna in operations management while simultaneously founding North American Motorsports to sell and distribute aftermarket car parts through an Internet storefront and retail location. He left Cigna in 2006 to focus on his company, ultimately bringing sales from startup to 1.8 million per year before selling the company in 2010. He then returned to Cigna as a project manager, where he is currently the TECDP Internship Program manager.
