In addition to this children's book, Nick has written poems that have been published in UCLA's The Beat, as well as two Op-Eds published in The Tennesseean. Topics have covered Imposter Syndrome, CPR, Veteran's rights, and general information on cardiac stress testing (using Taylor Swift album titles).
Nick also has medical publications on a home visiting program for patient with sickle cell, and created videos discussing patient experience with sickle cell, barriers in pain managment, and how patient testimony can impact thoughts on opiate prescribing legislation. He also has a publication on Coccidioidomycosis causing cardiac tamponade.
He hopes to have a novel published sometime in 2026 aimed to increase communication in the physician-patient dynamic.

About the Logo
The heart represents the study of medicine.
The edges of the heart drop down to resemble a stethoscope, symbolizing the practice of medicine (the bell/diaphragm of the stethoscope also looks like a bouncy ball).
The pencil symbolizes both writing and health communication, which should be balanced, not one sided. In contrast to a pen, medicine and health communication can change with new information, highlighting the need to rewrite what we know when we have better information.
