Nick Cocca
Nick Cocca is the Enterprise Director for Turning Point USA’s High School program. He was born and raised in Youngstown, Ohio. His grandparents were Italian immigrants who came to the United States because they believed in the American Dream. Both his parents and grandparents were small business owners, and Nick grew up watching how high taxes and government regulation hindered his family’s ability to achieve success. He knew from a young age that he was a conservative. He began to take action as a high school senior, volunteering for campaigns at the local, state, and national levels. He started his career with TPUSA as a Field Representative in January of 2016. Over the next 3 years he organized college chapters across Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, Maryland, and West Virginia. In 2018, Nick was tapped to be Great Lakes Regional Manager, where he and his team grew TPUSA’s presence in the heartland of America. This experience helped Nick to become the first Enterprise Director for TPUSA’s High School program. Just as Nick discovered his passion for political activism in high school, he now works to equip the high school activists of today with all they need to impact their communities.
