A founding member of the English Wizards team, Nick has called Krakow home for the past 5 years. He now overseas the development, marketing, recruitment, and day-to-day operations of English Wizards’ teaching programs. Before dropping his life in America and moving to Europe, Nick organized study abroad programs and lead educational tours in the USA. A native of New York City, Nick began developing English Wizards’ programs after moving to Krakow and realizing how difficult it was for fellow Americans and other non-EU citizens to find legal work in Europe.

On weekends, you’ll often find him hiking and kayaking in his current second home – the Tatra Mountains of southern Poland.

In his spare time, Rob travels, scuba dives, and goes on road trips, finding ways to see this beautiful world. He’s a positive and energetic leader who motivates and inspires his team.
