Nick Wagoner
Nick is the director for Launch Academy’s Life Skills Programand brings something unique to the company that helps set us apart from everybody else. Having struggled in academics in high school, he developed new, creative ways to teach himself the most difficult subject areas and used his strengths to compensate his weak spots. While in college, he organized numerous charity events, developed new “traditions” for the whole university, served in leadership, and tutored at-risk students in the very subjects he once struggled in. His work has been featured on channel 2 news, fox 23, and other stations and he continues to help students develop the same skills that made him into the current success story he is today.
Favorite song to get excited to: “Macho Man by The Village People. Gets me every time. haha.”
Figure in history who inspired you: “Definitely Ben Carson. He’s got to have one of the most phenomenal success stories of history, and, after seeing all the good he’s done and where he came from, he continues to inspire me to do great things.”
