Nick was born with the rare Tetra-amelia disorder: limbless, missing both arms at shoulder level, and having one small foot with two toes protruding from what should be his left thigh.
When he was young, Nick encountered bullying, loneliness, and even contemplated suicide. Soon his attitude changed and he began to blossom, making new friends and living life 100%.

Nick helps spread his messages via his organizations: ‘Life without Limbs’ and ‘Attitude is Altitude’.
