A self-proclaimed aviation geek who reaped the benefits of his sister’s former BA Cabin Crew role, Nicky flew all over the world for next to nothing.  It was during this time that Nicky discovered the world of air miles and points and began to explore how he could maintain his globetrotting lifestyle to various countries around the world.

Following his undergraduate law degree at the University of Birmingham and subsequent completion of law school in central London, Nicky qualified as a solicitor with a US based law firm in the capital. Not content with the solicitor life, Nicky switched up his career, following his passion, becoming a music lawyer for the UK’s biggest record label Virgin EMI. All the while, Nicky travelled across countries, continuing to dispense airmiles and aviation advice, running and hosting a series of masterclasses across London and teaching attendees on how they too could ‘Fly First Class for (Almost!) Free’, under the guise of Miles Mogul.

Photography is also a passion for Nicky. With professional skills he developed on the job working as a photo journalist for a news agency in Israel, he turned his craft to photographing both planes, his true love, and musicians, initially connected to the record label he worked for.

Today, Nicky heads up the UK Content Team at travel expert website The Points Guy, after being noticed for his repeated social media snaps in first class, alongside shooting international music stars such as Justin Bieber and  Kanye West. An expert in the art of luxury travel on a budget, and mastering the world of miles and points in the UK, Nicky was instantly recognised by the leading travel website, being hired as The Head of The Points Guy UK and being responsible for sharing his incredible tips and honed travel hacks with the site's 8 million plus monthly unique readers.

An aviation geek to the core, Nicky has been obsessed with aircraft, airports and the romance of travel for as long as he can remember!
