Michael Nuccitelli began his career in the machine tooling industry at the age of 13 by working after school and summers for Nationwide Precision Products, a business owned by his father and uncle. Later, he would go on to become President of Nationwide at age 24.

Upon graduation from Clarkson University with a bachelor’s degree in engineering, Nuccitelli went to work full-time as a sales engineer for Nationwide. Aggressively pursuing new accounts in diverse industries, Nuccitelli led Nationwide to rapid success, expansion and relocation to a new facility. Within three years of graduation he was named president, and during his tenure there the company’s sales grew 500 percent.

Nuccitelli sold Nationwide in 1999, turning his attention to Parlec, which he and his partners purchased in the early nineties. Since that time, company sales have grown over 400 percent. He has led the company’s expansion into Europe and Asia.

In addition to Parlec, Nuccitelli and his partner own Century Mold, a successful Injection Molding company with four locations throughout North America.

Nuccitelli is active in many community organizations and is a Trustee at Aquinas Institute, Unity Health System and Rochester Business Alliance.
