Nicole obtained her bachelor’s of Science in Business Administration degree with a focus in Marketing from the University of Rhode Island this year. She did really well during her time in college, as she was on the Dean’s list.

This beauty with brains volunteers with Best Buddies in High School. During her free time, Nicole likes to do arts and crafts and play games with children. Her biggest inspiration is one of her uncles who was born with cerebral palsy and never let his disability define him or his personality as an individual.

Currently, Nicole is working as a Project Coordinator at Kantar Millward Brown which is one of the largest global marketing research companies. In the future, Nicole wishes to travel and utilise her experience and capabilities around the country and eventually the world.

Nicole has been in the modelling world since she was 12 years of age and has worked in many projects and fashion shows. Upon winning, Nicole said, “After five years of hard work and dedication, my dream finally became a reality. Being crowned Miss Rhode Island USA 2019 was both a fulfilling and surreal moment I will remember for the rest of my life.”

Nicole started trying for the crown since 2014 when she competed for Miss Rhode Island Teen USA and has been trying ever since. She finally has the crown on her head and there is no doubt that she will use her reign to the best of her abilities.
