Most recently, I have had the pleasure to work with Nic Padula, Branding Extraordinaire on our rebranding project. Nic is a positive, energetic, creative, and talented professional that works well with others. He is an excellent collaborator and knows how to work through the process of attaining a quality image that matches an organizations requirements. We have many other projects to consider going forward and hopefully he will be a part of those opportunities. In any case, I expect to see great things from Nic in the future.

Nic's skills make him a valuable asset to any team. His drive to create is impressive, and his talents back it up. He is truly someone who can do it all. Nic is eager to learn new skill and wont shy away for tackling new problems.
Nic genuinely cares about the people he works with this means that wherever he goes, he will promote a healthy, happy environment for everyone.
I am honored to have worked with him and have him on my team while at IndieWhip. I look forward to working with him for years to come on creative marketing projects.
If you have the chance to work with him; take it!

Nic stood out as a particularly engaged and creative student. He has a rare blend of skills in being able to think critically about a marketing campaign's needs and how to use content creation tools to add value. Outside of class, Nic helped me create a set of detailed images that were exactly what I needed as stimuli for a research study on price framing.

Nicholas is as driven and forward-thinking as they come. He is full of ideas and WILL make each and every one of them happen. I have had the honor of working with him on multiple creative projects and he is always positive, open-minded and a pleasure to work with. He is a real team player and I know clients are as happy with his work as I am to have worked with him.

I've never seen Nic shy away from learning a new skill or tackling a new problem if it meant bringing value to himself or the company. However, being able to code, design, animate or strategize aren't what I believe makes Nic an asset. His true worth lies in not just his ability, but his desire, to understand people and help them. He is always ready to listen and to tell you what you needed to hear, rather than what you wanted to hear. Nic is unusually good at stepping away from situation, setting aside his personal biases, and viewing as issue from an outside perspective. He can then bring that perspective to people who might not otherwise be able to gain it. It's this rare skill that makes me certain Nic will thrive in leadership and mentoring positions.
