Nicole likes to travel whenever she gets the chance and when she is lucky these places prove to inspire her. Some of her favorite adventures have led to her experiencing the slot canyons and red rocks in Arizona and Utah, the stalactites and rimstone in Luray Caverns, Virginia, and the Baltic rocks of the Alcantara Gorge in Sicily. It is these places that she pulls from her memory to include in her work.

Besides her love for art, Nicole is also an avid foodie, nature enthusiast, and dog lover. Her own English Bulldog (Cue) and Pit Bull (Chutney) are always by her side.
