Despite being considered popular and attractive, Nick is insecure and gets nervous occasionally. He is passionate about music and plans to become a rock star. In 1992, he began dating Kimberly Hayes, a classmate of his and often attends his gigs with her friends; Maria Santos, Tara Farrell, and Hannah Morton. In the summer of '93, while Kimberly was in Paris for summer vacation, Nick had a affair with her friend, Maria which began the love triangle between him, Kim, and Maria. Although he loved Kim and was in love with Maria, he regreted the affair which caused him and Kim to break up and her to end her friendship with her longtime best friend. At age 19, he became a father when Maria gave birth to daughter, Elena.
In the Just the Seven of Us series, Nick returned to Silver Hills High for a class reunion. He was able to patched things up Kimberly, though they never reconciled.
