Beginning her college career as an aspiring actress and a gifted storyteller and writer, Nicole was unsure when she declared acting as her major at SUU. With help from caring professors, Nicole learned the importance of critical thinking and asking questions which gave her strength to become independent and make decisions for herself.

After serving at Microsoft, Nicole now works as a senior search account manager for Yahoo in London, a place she has called home for 10 years now. She also continues to hone her skills as a storyteller at Spark London, where she mentors budding writers.
