Nicole, a talented and accomplished individual, was born in the picturesque coastal city of Santa Monica, California. Her remarkable career has been marked by numerous accolades, including three prestigious Best Supporting Actress awards for her outstanding performance in the critically acclaimed film "Broken Dreams", skillfully directed by David Crabtree.
Despite being born with Osteogenesis Imperfecta, a rare and complex bone condition, Nicole has overcome the challenges it presents and stands tall at an impressive 3 feet 8 inches, a testament to her resilience and determination. Her multifaceted talents extend beyond her impressive acting career, as she is also a skilled writer and producer. Nicole has taken the initiative to establish her own production company, Von Gertz Empire Productions, where she is currently developing several exciting projects.
Nicole's academic background is equally impressive, having earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in Theatre from California State University Northridge in 2007, followed by a Master of Fine Arts degree in Theatre, Film and Television from California State University Los Angeles. In July 2010, she took center stage as a keynote speaker at the OIF's National Conference, where she shared her inspiring story and insights with a captivated audience, leading discussions on pursuing an education and career while living with Osteogenesis Imperfecta.
