Bio
J. Laurel Cacace
Nick is passionate about serving our clients, balancing a strong devotion to finishing work on time with a drive to find the right solution, not just the most expedient one. He is a good communicator and collaborator, actively reaching out when someone else should be involved in a decision or has knowledge to contribute. His team and mine have overlapping responsibilities in certain areas of the system, which is always a difficult thing to navigate, but I have always found Nick easy to work with in those situations. His drive is to do things as well as possible and he does not let ego or inter-team dynamics get in the way of that.
