About Me
I moved to the Bay Area in March of 2005 and I absolutely love it. There are so many things to do here and everything is so beautiful. I grew up in Cleveland, Ohio and don't miss a thing about it except for my family and friends.
I'm an artist and have been since I was a child. I knew at a young age that it was my career of choice, so it has always been my focus. I attended collage at the Cleveland Institute of Art and obtained a BFA in Illustration. During college I started working as a web designer and have been advancing in this field ever since. I love web design because it involves both the artistic side of my brain and the analytical - trouble shooting code and solving usability problems.
"Nicole is an amazing leader that I feel honored to work for. She genuinely cares about the experiences of her clients and employees and that makes such a world of difference. If I ever have a problem I feel confident bringing it to Nicole because I know she is going to work with me to find a solution that we're all happy with. Her creativity is inspiring and makes working with her FUN!"

Outside of the day job I try to remain artistic by painting and taking a lot of photos. You can buy some of my artwork on my other website. Or check out my fun and goofy t-shirts here.
I also devote time to my dogs, and to doing many fun things in the Bay Area with my husband and our friends. Some of these include wine vacations, skiing, and sightseeing at home. I also love to travel and listen to music. Here are some of my favorite things. Oh, and this was my awesome wedding.
