Nick joined Milici Valenti Advertising in 1980, and by 1982, was running the agency’s largest account, First Hawaiian Bank. In 1994, he became a partner and has led the agency to become a dominant creative and public relations force in Hawaii. Nick was voted Advertising Man of the Year in 1993 and received the prestigious American Advertising Federation’s Silver Medal Award in 2000. He is a graduate of Columbia University and holds an MBA from NYU.
Today, Nick holds the position of Chief Executive Officer Emeritus and although retired, remains active with our business and client relationships. He is also considered the heart of MVNP, and continues to keep our agency spirit and values on course.
Born in Trinidad and raised in London and New York, Nick always dreamt about taking a Hawaii vacation. His vacations turned into a sabbatical, and then a permanent home. For the past 38 years, he’s been living his Hawaii dream with his wife and family. Nick still travels around the world, whether seeking out business opportunities for MVNP and their clients, or for personal pleasure. One could argue they are both one and the same.
