Early Days.
-
Young Dreamer.
Nigel was born and raised in Baltimore, Maryland.
Nigel Hammett is the son of a New York Father and a Baltimore Mother. He is the oldest of two, having a younger sister. Seeing his grandmother, aunt, and mother all own their businesses inspired young Nigel to be an entrepreneur. By age 12, Nigel had his own snowball stand business, a fence painting business, and was hustling over 50 dollars a day in candy sales in school until a classmate told on him (LOL).

Resilience
Nigel had a few rough patches in his life. Nigel often faced instability at home in his later childhood years being exposed to the effects of child protective services, activities, domestic law enforcement, courtrooms, instability, and caregivers in mental institutions. Nigel spent most of his time at the Edgewood Boys & Girls Club and spent his summers at his Grandmothers house. Nigel’s life would never be the same as he would have to step up and be a man.
