Nicole currently in her first year of occupational therapy school at USC. She is also an assistant coach at Brentwood high school for track and cross country. She got her human biology and microbiology degree from South Dakota State University (the midwest SDSU) and had the opportunity to run for them from 2019-2024. Running has been a big part of her life ever since she was 12 years old. She enjoys pushing herself to the limits and also meeting great friends along the way. She is very grateful for a healthy body and a healthy mind to be able to do the things that she loves!
