Nicholas Dello Joio was born in Bedford, NY and grew up in Wellington, Florida. Although Nick has two equestrian parents, it was not until the age of 14 that he decided to take up riding. Now as a grand prix rider at the age of 30, he has quickly climbed up the ladder to success, following in his father’s footsteps. In 2009, Nick won his first grand prix, the $25,000 EMO Grand Prix at the Atlanta Fall Classic I, and just one week later scored another win in the $25,000 EMO Grand Prix at the Atlanta Fall Classic II. His career has only gotten broader since then. Listen in and hear about how Nick is riding today!
