Nicole majored in Operational Communications at Ashland University with a double minor in Business and French. While in college, she worked at the Ashland Convocation Center as a caterer, assisted with events, held down three internships and worked an on-campus job. During this time she also was a photographer at a local studio. After graduation, Nicole went into the political career path and recently worked for Senator Senator Sherrod Brown (D-OH). During that time, she also worked with Senator John Glenn and his wife, Annie, Sherrod’s wife, Connie Schultz, and other notable political figures as well as celebrities.
“Throughout my time in the Senator’s office I gained experience in fundraising, non-profit work, event planning, and communication notoriety,” she writes. “I was then recruited by Catholic Charities of the Archdiocese of Chicago to work in their fundraising department as a special events manager and administrative coordinator and relocated to Chicago shortly afterward. Our company currently cares for one out of every four citizens of Chicago and my department raises approximately 25 million dollars to help offset the cost of our outreach efforts. In the next coming years, I will be travelling to the Vatican to celebrate our 100th anniversary and this coming year Pope Francis will be appointing the new Cardinal of the Archdiocese of Chicago.”
