About Me:

Nikolaus “Nik” Brown joined Media General in early 2003. One of his first projects for Media General was the design and construction of TriCities.com (previously the BHC and WJHL maintained two separate websites).

Nik grew up in sunny California. Shortly before high school his family moved to Southern VA where Nik was privileged to attend and graduate from Hargrave Military Academy. Nik’s undergraduate career was split between Virgina Tech (Computer Science) and ETSU (Design Graphics).
