Nick Chow
Product Manager of Axiom Zen
Nick’s quick wit, nimble disposition and disciplined creativity make him a uniquely qualified Axiom Zen product manager. At Axiom Zen, Nick brings structure and focus to business objectives, accelerating projects from conception to reality. A brilliant strategist, he combines the collective strengths of his team to ensure every product reaches its highest potential for success. Born and raised in Toronto, it was Nick’s insatiable curiosity that drove him west to the University of British Columbia, where he majored in political science and economics. Being a student didn’t stop him from taking a walk on the wild side: Nick has sailed up the coast of B.C. to Alaska in a 50-foot boat, mixed drinks in the Hong Kong bar scene and even rolled up his sleeves to help a friend build a hydrogen reactor. Before coming to Axiom Zen, Nick worked for two Vancouver startups, doing everything from research and grant writing to long-term planning and strategy. He also produced apps with powerful gamification techniques, quickly finding a love for user experience design and the art of building delightful products that people love to use.
