ABOUT
Hello hello. I’m Nicholas Bauman and I’m a Group Creative Director at Brandits & Friends.
Before that I was an Creative Director at Droga5. And before that I was a Copywriter at Droga5.
And before that I was a Creative at CHI. And before that I was an Intern at Ogilvy.
And before that I was a Valet outside of a Brio Italian Grille at a mall in Columbus, Ohio.
So, yes. I can drive a stick-shift if it ever comes to that.
