PASSION AND DRIVE; even when a 6 year old boy’s palms were too small to have a full grasp of the instrument, he had already shown must interest in the guitar. Through secondary school, 30 minute recesses meant precious jamming sessions despite having to lug the instrument to school.

In 2005, he emerged winner for Original Composition at the annual nation-wide talent competition, Talent Quest; prominent names from the competition include Maia Lee (Singapore Idol Top 5), Kelly Phoon & Candice Toh (Channel U’s Project Superstar).

Ultimately passion surpassed prospects, thus a place for a Diploma in Engineering Informatics was given up for the closest to music production, a Diploma in Audio Engineering at School of Audio Engineering (SAE).

After graduating in 2006, Nic and his childhood friends formed the band Milubing 迷路兵 which took part in a nationwide competition, Channel U's Superband, and emerged as champions for that first season.
