Meet Nikko

Nikko was born to Vanna and her ex-husband George Santo Pietro in 1994, after which they had his little sister Giovanna Gigi in 1997. Nikko holds a bachelor’s degree in agriculture sciences from Oregon State University, citing his career inspiration as his gardening upbringing, during which he learned to grow food at home. He practiced his knowledge by building an orchard in Missouri with an added apiary on a friend’s farm.

Nikko is a passionate businessman with experience as a business development manager and project overseer, which he replicates as the owner of a sourdough bakery in Cape Girardeau, Missouri. Aside from work, he enjoys cooking, playing the piano, and making artwork, which he now sells on his website. Nikko also loves to travel and has explored countries like France, Switzerland, Italy, the Netherlands, and Germany, according to his social media.
