Hi David, if you prefer internal styles in the style tag, or in external file, you can change color this way:

h1 {
  color: (here write the name of the color or hexadecimal value) - for example #FFF or black, do not forget to add a semicolon at the end:
  color: black;
}

If you prefer inline styles, try it this way:

<h1 style="color:black">Nick Pettit<h1>

Hope that helped :-)
