Born in Los Angeles, California, Nikolas moved to the South Bay as a toddler and was raised throughout the Bay Area, including time living in the hills of Milpitas, California, with his grandparents. He is a graduate of Tennyson High School and began working in concrete at age 15, learning the trade alongside his uncles Tevisi Toki, Apisai Fotofili and his father, Lopiseni Finau.  During high school, Nikolas earned a two-year certificate for completing the Explorer Program with the Hayward Police Department and was honored with the Youth Citizen Award from the City of Hayward.

After high school, Nikolas served a two-year church mission in Oahu and Kauai, Hawaii, where he developed strong leadership and service values. He later worked on federal and state projects with MA Steiner Construction, gaining extensive experience over six years in the concrete industry.

Recognizing the growing demand for quality construction in the Bay Area, Nikolas founded Celestial Concrete LLC. He is currently pursuing a degree in Business Administration at Chabot College and is working toward his real estate license, with long-term goals of becoming a real estate investor and developer.
