Dashingly handsome Nicolás “Nick” Garnier aka Toti aka Nico is an artist, model, actor and singer best known for portraying Andres on the Disney Channel’s award-winning, long-running Spanish-language series, Violetta. He is an ambassador of Disney Amigos por el Mundo (the Latin American version of Disney Friends for Change).
Garnier was born and raised in Rosario, Argentina. He discovered a passion for acting and performing at an early age, and went on to study theatre, singing, dancing, piano, guitar, and drums. His natural good looks helped him forge a career in modelling prior to acting, and he worked as a model in various graphic campaigns for recognised Argentinian brands. He made his acting debut in 2008 in Casi Ángeles. But his big breakthrough came when he was cast in Disney’s Latin-American series, Violetta in 2012. He has gone on to appear in many other shows, such as Bella y Bestia, Valentino, El Argentino, and Jake and Blake. Away from acting, he has been releasing music as Nick Garnier since 2016, and his latest single, En Madrid, came out in 2021.
Garnier regularly connects with his legions of followers and fans (who are known as Totistas) through Instagram, posting pictures and videos of his life both on and off camera and in and out of the recording studio. He is available for that personalised shout-out via the Cameo platform, and he also has a dedicated YouTube channel, Nicolás Garnier.
