A graduate of Oak Grove High School, he attended Mississippi State University for two semesters before transferring to The University of Southern Mississippi, where he earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration in 2004.

He is the owner of Brown Lawn Service, which he established in 2009. Until his election to the City Council, Councilman Brown served as a substitute teacher with the Hattiesburg Public School District. His career has also included management roles at Walgreens and Sanderson Farms, Inc.

He and his wife, Evette Taylor-Brown, have been married fifteen years and have an eleven-year-old son, Nicholas Brown Jr.
