The Right Professional For Your Next Event!
How He Got Involved
Nick originally got his start in the entertainment industry back in 5th grade, volunteering to mix sound for his elementary school’s variety show. That early experience sparked a passion that grew throughout middle and high school, where he honed his skills in audio mixing for theatrical productions and band performances.
Why He Got Interested in DJing
Back in middle school, Nick and his friend Will attended school dances and quickly noticed that the DJs hired for the events often fell short—they didn’t mix the music, failed to read the crowd, and brought underpowered sound systems. Convinced they could do better, Nick took it upon himself to learn how to mix music, starting from scratch on his laptop using just a keyboard and mouse.
The Story of NWN Entertainment
One question I always get asked is what NWN even stands for? Long story short of how the business came to be was Will (who I had mentioned before) came up to me in 9th Grade English Class with this crazy idea to start a DJ Business and apply what we didn’t like about the DJs we have seen to bring people the parties we never got! I thought he was absolutely crazy, and that this wouldn’t go anywhere and that we would waste time (that aged well). But I went with it, and got another friend Noah involved for a while to help out. That’s where the NWN name came from. We pooled money and gear that we had already and managed to pull off a Sweet Sixteen in April 2017! Later on Noah dropped out to focus on other ventures and Will moved to Nashville in 2020 for college to pursue Audio Engineering (check out his new business Nashville Live Sound!)
NWN Entertainment Today
Fast Forward to today I still eat those words of doubt I said to Will about this not working out. Since COVID NWN has grown exponentially! I DJ 70+ events annually primarily Schools and Sweet 16s (My Favorite Events!), Weddings, and Nightclubs. Back in High School I always dreamed about almost “touring” the 518 doing as many school dances for the high schools in the Capital Region! In fact we’ve grown so much (doing 13 proms in 2025) that I had to bring on two other amazing DJs with my same passion for high energy events! Comparing my setups from then to now is always amusing but it just goes to show you the amount my company has grown over the last 6+ years!
My Promise and Goal Since Day One!
“I started NWN Entertainment to give crowds the events I always wanted! Bringing the club experience to all of my events. We bring the largest sound, the best light shows, and on top of that mix our music live!”

Fun facts about myself!

My favorite bands to listen to outside of what I DJ with are The Midnight, The Band CAMINO and Nightly. I absolutely love concerts, live music, and music festivals and was fortunate enough to meet some of my favorite bands!

I spent New Years Eve 2023 and 2024 DJing on the beach in Cancun Mexico at a lounge called Tribu. I have also DJ’d in Punta Cana as well.

I absolutely love to travel! My Favorite places I’ve been to are Hawaii and Cancun!

Back in 2019 when I was in High School, I helped lead, start, and grow our Broadcasting Club and presented to the super intendent a design proposal for a recording studio that got approved!
