After receiving her degree from the University of California, San Diego, Nicole held numerous consulting, sales and marketing executive roles in media, pharmaceuticals and tech. Nicole is a proud mother of two children and two adopted dogs. In her spare time, she enjoys hot yoga, fitting in a workout at the gym, and playing volleyball in Laguna Beach.
