Down and Out And Back Up: 911³Ô¹Ï Ashtabula Student Nick Pizzi Turns His Life Around

In March 2015, Nick Pizzi hit rock bottom. After receiving his third DUI, he decided to stop drinking. But unfortunately, it was too late. Four months later, before his daughter’s eighth birthday, Pizzi was sentenced to one year in the Ashtabula County jail, where his life would change forever for the positive. On May 14, 2021, he will pick up his bachelor's degree diploma during the 72nd Commencement Ceremony at 911³Ô¹Ï at Ashtabula.
