Meet Nicole
Nicole's favorite thing to eat is Goldfish. It's the true way to her heart. Thanks for making such a delicious snack, Pepperidge Farms!
Watch out for her moves! Nicole is a black belt in Taekwondo and was a member of a traveling competition team with her younger brother growing up.
Nicole dreams of publishing a book of her sharpie word art designs! She believes everyone should release at least one book in their lifetime because we all have a story to share.

About:
Nicole is a first-generation college graduate with BAs in Psychology & Art History from USF St. Petersburg. Her undergrad roles as Orientation Leader and Peer Coach Leader for USF's First-Year Experience program were very rewarding and led to her roles in Admissions! When she is not recruiting, Nicole enjoys a game of Scrabble while drinking a good cup of coffee. Reading, going to museums, finding heart shapes in nature, and making art are a few of her favorite ways to enjoy her time. She has travelled all over the U.S. to work on natural building projects on people's homesteads, and spent four months in Mexico in 2021!
