She has also established a nursing initiative that is focused on empowering and mentoring nursing students and nurses in American Samoa. Nicole is also a licensed minister and has worked in various departments within the ministry as a Sunday School teacher, events organizer,  choir member, and praise dancer.  She is a loyal wife who enjoys family time, loving on her beautiful dogs, reading, and sharing the gospel with others. Although she prefers to take on a more behind-the-scenes role, Nicole is excited to share her testimonies and experiences with the women of Heels & Confidence.
