Biography

Nichole's journey in the entertainment industry began long before she booked her notable roles in "Model Minority" and "Project X". Prior to those films, she had already gained experience in commercial work and modeling, specifically with American Apparel.

Although she may not be able to pinpoint the exact moment she knew she wanted to pursue acting, Nichole has fond memories of recreating characters and doing funny voices from a very young age. As a child, she would often beg her parents to help her get an agent, and her enthusiasm for the craft only grew stronger with time.

At the age of 14, Nichole made the bold decision to move to Los Angeles with the goal of turning acting into a career. She went on to attend the University of Southern California (USC) as a Theater major, graduating early after just three years.

Despite her dedication to her studies, Nichole faced a significant challenge in getting cast in the university's own productions. She had to balance her academic responsibilities with professional auditions outside of school, which proved to be a demanding but ultimately rewarding experience.

Throughout her early years in Los Angeles, Nichole's passion for acting only continued to grow, laying the foundation for her future success in the industry.
