In 1990, Nardicio moved to Berlin where he worked as an opera singer and actor in such venues as the Bregenzer Festspiele and Theater des Westens. in 1995, he moved to New York City to become an actor, only changing his mind after temping for a year and realizing: "as an actor you have no control over your career, i felt. I had to have more control over my life, so i went into nightlife." He opened the very successful gay bar The Slide, and eventually went on to work all over Manhattan and Fire Island.
