“I love student living; it’s come so far in 30 years and I’m so excited to see where we’ll be in 30 more. We’ve been at the very centre of this, leading the evolution. Becoming Dot embraces our past and future growth.” Nick is a pioneer and creator of firsts for the industry. He has an entrepreneurial, innovative mindset and is recognized as a sector specialist.
