Our Team
Dylan Nicks
My childhood was full of plants. I spent my time alternating between my grandparents' agricultural farm and my mothers indoor gardens. This background and a personal appreciation for flora made me eager to share my passion through a botanical-based venture. Beyond Plant Parenthood, I am double majoring in Computer Science and Business at UNC. My hobbies include playing for the UNC men’s club handball team, working as a white water raft guide in the summer, driving with the windows down, and spending quality time with my family.
At Plant Parenthood, I contribute my background in social media management, graphic design, and entrepreneurship to Plant Parenthood. I oversees social media, economic decisions, and sourcing business opportunities.
