    About Me

    My name is Nicholas Emeigh, but everyone calls me Nick, and I prefer it.  I'm usually called Nicholas when I'm in trouble. I'm from the Philadelphia area, work in business, and fancy myself as a freelance graphic designer, writer, and artist. I have a passion for art in all its forms including music, but I restrict my singing to the shower and the car for the good of society.  If you'd like to know more, just send me an e-mail. I really appreciate you stopping by.
