Nick Anastasia
Nick has always been a tinkerer and a teacher, learning as much as possible and sharing that knowledge with others. Nick has a bachelor's degree in computer science and spent 7 years as a software engineer. He has been involved in the maker community at Artisan's Asylum in Somerville since 2011 and now helps run the bicycle shop there. Nick has built more than 15 custom chopper bicycles in all sorts of bizarre configurations and he regularly commutes on a bike that's over 5 ft tall, is covered in programmable LED lights and has an on board sound system. Nick is excited about the potential of human powered and alternative energy transportation, especially around the city for short distance trips. When not in the workshop Nick is a certified Parkour instructor and teaches kids of all ages how to better use their bodies to move through space.
