A spunky 5' 2", Nicole was born to parents Jim, a musician (Berklee College of Music) and Carol, a sleep technologist, and raised in a small town on the New Jersey coast along with three younger brothers, James Jr., Anthony, and Joseph. Early on, the captivating youngster was recognized as a natural performer and began her singing career at the age of 7 in a local talent show. She continued performing in many theatre/musical theatre projects, from leading roles in "Hair," to "Songs for a New World," and "Footloose." Her theatre experience quickly broadened her interest in acting for film and TV. Her dream was made a reality when she was able to be the host of a syndicated TV show on CNN/CN8 at the age of 15. That was a big year, as she was also able to do her first studio recording as a solo vocalist. Her performances as a soloist at the prestigious NJPAC and PNC Bank Arts Center lead her to the Big Apple. As a teen, she moved to Manhattan and in a short while was performing locally with the likes of Kathleen Battle at Ashford and Simpson's "Sugar Bar". She has been very fortunate as a young performer to be able to share the stage with many whom she aspires to be like, including Grammy Award winning Edna Wright and the Honey Cone, The Temptations, Debbie Reynolds, Barbara Eden, Louis vanAmstel "Dancing With the Stars", Mario Lopez, Gilles Marini "Sex and The City", and American Idols David Hernandez, Mikalah Gordon, and Anthony Federov. Nicole currently resides in Los Angeles where she is avidly pursuing her career and working as a performer. Her debut pop album is currently in production and is due to be released in the spring. She isn't confined to Los Angeles however, and keeps an open mind about varied projects that have taken her all over the country, which included a stint headlining in spectacular Las Vegas. She has also landed leading roles in the feature films "Lucky Loser" (Sundance) and "The Only Man I Love, Tucker" (2010). Her most recent TV appearance was on the soap "Passions", and she's appeared in various commercials, done music video work with "The Click Five" and continues to work as a well rounded performer. She has recently been offered several exciting animation opportunities in the world of voice-over and continues to find interest in every aspect of the arts. Show less «
