Raised in NYC, from a big Greek-Italian family, he earned a BFA in acting @ Pace University. Niko's a proud member of LGBTQ+ com. In LA, a FEW highlights: The UNSUB on Criminal Minds, being directed by Danny A and Todd Tucker, and taught by Lesly Kahn herself. Also, Niko obviously DID NOT write this himself, that would be pretentious, but he is looking over my shoulder right now. His fearless comedic instincts are equally matched to his grounded dramatic performances and when called for: great improv skills
