When not designing and prototyping NEMO’s next big thing, she enjoys climbing, hiking, cycling, snowboarding and surfing around New England.

Tom's enthusiasm for adventure and outdoor activities started in the pool. He's been swimming competitively since grade school and has gone on to win multiple conference titles as well as compete in the U.S. Open as a student at the University of New Hampshire. Tom currently holds two school records at UNH and after a five year hiatus from the sport has recently gotten back in the pool with the BC masters program. Combining his love of the water and being outside, Tom developed a new passion with surfing. He's traveled from Santa Cruz to the Cape in search of the best waves possible. And when the water freezes over, Tom can be found on the ski slopes anywhere from Alpine Meadows to Sunday River. Tom graduated Cum Laude from UNH with a double major in communications and political science. Before starting with NEMO, he spent 5 years working in the publishing industry as a project manager. Tom is our Director of Operations.

The product of a southern New Hampshire town, Steve grew to love the outdoors around the beginning of his second decade. He spent a lot of time outside starting in the summer of 2004, painting houses, kayaking, and hiking. The following year Steve moved to Portland, Oregon.

His energies continue concentrating on the latter, with gardening being a slow-to-develop yet promising practice. Overall, Steve loves spending time outside, taking in his surroundings and appreciating its presence.

Kate's background in marketing and love of the outdoors has led her to the NEMO family. Whether it was skiing or hiking in the Adirondacks near her home, learning to rock and ice climb in the White's during college, or skiing in the Northern Rockies of Montana, Kate has always pursued the mountains. She graduated Cum Laude with a Bachelor's degree in Marketing from Plymouth State College while skiing for their Alpine Team. Most recently, Kate's paid job was marketing manager at Big Sky Resort in Montana, but she took her volunteer efforts as an EMT/Firefighter, president of the Chamber of Commerce and chair of a group investigating incorporating the community of Big Sky, just as seriously. When Kate's not at NEMO, she can be found out on her bike, skis, or trail running with her husband and two dogs.

Bill has embraced art and the outdoors since he was able to hold a pencil. This passion began during hikes with his grandfather. Today, Bill spends countless hours hiking and biking to places where he can observe and photograph local wildlife.

Traditionally trained in fine art, Bill received a Bachelor of Arts in Graphic Design and Fine Art from Keene State College. From 1998-2008, Bill worked as a graphic artist for Cannondale Bicycle Corporation honing his skills on graphical treatments to bikes and print media.

After living in Colorado for a couple years and attending Sterling College in northern Vermont, Nicole is happy to return to her home town of Nashua, NH to join NEMO. She has previously worked for Mavic and Atomic, specializing in marketing, customer service and sales. As part of joining NEMO she's excited to be engaged in every aspect of the business, and to be part of a small company made up of great people. Besides being able to raise her daughter near her extended family, an added bonus of working at NEMO is that the headquarters are footsteps away from the trails she grew up mountain biking and running on. An avid biker (mountain, road, cyclocross) and runner, Nicole rarely goes a day without hitting the trails.
