Nicholas Coriaty
Owner
Born in Whittier, CA, Nicholas grew up with two sisters, who would tell him he was born in a nutshell. Now that he is older, he agrees with them. Throughout his childhood he lived off of Super Nintendo, N64, baseball, and iconic movies. During his free time, Nicholas loves to spend time with his beautiful wife Krystle. He is a die-hard Angels fan and follows baseball on a daily basis. One of his favorite movies, Blade Runner 2049, has inspired him to write his own screenplays and pursue his ultimate dream of producing and directing movies one day. Nicholas loves the constant 0-100 back and forth on production sets and the scene to scene interactions with the Cinematographer and Gaffer. He also loves when the craft table is stocked with coffee.
