Nick Decker is a multi-dimensional — a designer, writer, artist, philosopher, learner, and maker based in Cincinnati, Ohio — formerly of Los Angeles, Asheville, and everywhere in between. He has made things at companies and stages including Everloving Records, MySpace Music, United Talent Agency, Funny or Die, and Tryon Theatre — plus stints as stay-at-home many other things: dad, organic farmer, architectural salesman, freelance writer, voice actor, and video editor. Now he is building The Studiolo — a practice devoted to creating the conditions whereby human flourishing can emerge. He believes life is a process of becoming who you are — of learning to live in a way congruent with your soul and what you are uniquely designed to contribute. His interests are ungovernable: design, philosophy, music, psychology, mysticism, mythology, architecture, vibe coding, and fun ways to use AI. He is building the infrastructure through which his polymathic animating spirit can flow forth into an ever-evolving set of value-generating streams, services and structures.
