Latest Accomplishment: Managing partners Cy and Jesse Waits recently entrusted Nicolli to spearhead Tryst's pirate-themed Halloween party. Though it was up against two heavily promoted celebrity-hosted events elsewhere, Tryst put close to 3,000 bodies through the door that night with only direct promotions from Nicolli's team.
