Nicko Falcis: Get To Know More About Kris Aquino’s Ex-Business Partner

Who is Nicko Falcis before he became Kris Aquino’s business partner and managing director of KCAP?

Amid the Kris Aquino-Nicko Falcis feud, the public has already known every corner of Kris’ life but who is Nicko?

Here are some facts about the former business partner of Queen of all Media whom he accused of stealing from her.

Nicko or Nicardo Falcis III is the middle child among three siblings and they grew up in Quezon City.

His father is Nicardo Falcis Sr., who died back in 2008 due to stage 4 lung cance, was a civil engineer while his mother Carol is an oncologist.

After his father’s death, their mother was the one who stood as the breadwinner and sent them to school.

The older sister of Nicko Falcis graduated at the University of the Philippines with a degree in BS Industrial Engineering while his younger brother took up law at the same school.

Initially, Nicko studied medicine because he was expected to be the next doctor in their family.

“At first, I thought becoming a doctor is easy as I can memorize and easily remember everything,” he told ANCX. “However, during my freshman year, the sight of blood during our Natural Science subject made me so afraid to pursue my course. I begged and cried to my mom that I can’t become a doctor, since by the time we go into our sophomore year, we’ll be dissecting cats already!” he shared.

Since his parents only required them to take courses with board exams and just choose between UP and UST, Nicko Falcis took up BS-Business Administration & Accountancy which had a CPA Board Exam.

He had his Masters Degree last May 2018 at NYU Stern and for him, that was the best feeling ever.

“I’ve always thought I’d stick it out in corporate as a manager who will climb the best ladders, starting out as a sales manager. But being a teacher and entrepreneur, I developed further my selling skills and got to apply it in the most extreme cases – I’ve sold fragrances and beauty products (L’Oreal), petroleum (Shell, Caltex), potatoes (Potato Corner) and even people (as a teacher and as an agent)!”  Nicko Falcis said.

Admittedly, he shared that one of the challenges in his early years in the corporate world is his sexual preference.

“No one told me that being in the alpha-male dominated petroleum world would become my biggest personal and professional challenge as a young gay. I literally cried every day during my first month as I adjusted to the alpha-male culture of Shell,” he said.

Despite this, he proved to everyone he can perform his responsibilities in the company excellently.

“Immediately, my team saw my value and respected my uniqueness. Within a year, I emerged as the top Area Manager, with the full support of my team! I assumed higher roles in Shell, jumping 2 sales levels within 3 years. The rest was history. Indeed, when they say ‘bees shouldn’t be able to fly,’ I can always tell them my story in Shell,” Nicko shared.

When Nicko Falcis was asked during an interview with ANC regarding the bond within his family especially in the midst of his conflict with Kris Aquino, here is what he said:

“My family does not have a big name. My siblings and I saw a lot of hardships growing up, since our dad was laid off early and permanently during tough times in the 80s, and my mother worked very hard as the breadwinner to put me and my siblings through school.”

“I graduated as a scholar with honors from the best university of our country. In turn, I dedicated a significant part of my career as an educator, coach and accounting and management consultant to local and emerging Filipino companies. I’m just as proud of my sister and brother, as we all became professionals, fulfilling the dream and vision of my parents.”
