I have worked with Nicole for the past year. Her work speaks for itself, but I’ve had the opportunity to see who she is daily and how she works; that’s what I want to highlight. When it comes to her approach to crafting projects, she draws on knowledge and experience and applies the most applicable theory and style for the right reasons. When asked, she is gifted in explaining why she makes the decisions she does, down to each detail. She strives for absolute excellence, but I have never seen that desire for quality hinder her progress. Regarding interpersonal relations and emotional intelligence, Nicole has a remarkable ability to connect with people. The people she has coached and mentored regularly reach back to her later, asking for her technical expertise, design prowess, or emotional support and encouragement. Nicole perfectly balances professional skills on every project she touches with building personal relationships with everyone around her, be it clients, coworkers, or mentees. This balance at such a high level makes Nicole wonderful to work with.

I worked directly with Nicole for many years providing multimedia services for corporate and government customers, including NASA, SAIC, and Adtran. I am always impressed with Nicole's professionalism and ability to conceive an idea and carry it through to the finish line. Nicole is the complete package -- project manager, communication strategist, graphic designer, programmer, and problem solver."
