March of 2022, Nic went to Durango, Colorado for a snowboarding trip. He stayed with his buddy Jon Quinn while he was there. He met Jon's partner (now wife) Jen and she said she would introduce him to her friend Lily in a ploy to get him to move to Durango. It didn't happen that trip, but Jon was on the case. He shared their Instagram profiles and they started talking. Messages turned into phone calls once a week or so and finally Nic asked Lily if she would come visit him in California. She said yes! They spent 3 days together, and that was it. They started a long distance relationship and now, marriage!
