hello! i'm nicole

since i was a child, i have always wanted to create art that allows people to escape to different worlds in order to learn more about the one they are currently in. 

​

my passion lies in shaping stories that entertain, challenge, and inspire all audiences. i believe deeply in storytelling as a tool for education, connection, and change. in my journey as an artist, i have explored as many mediums as possible, some of which you will see here on this website! 

​

i started my career at emerson college as a film major, focusing on directing and screenwriting, before realizing that theater is the gateway to any performative art, and every immersive art. as a theatre major, i spent my time focusing on the things that mattered most to me: student led productions to help others and my own visions come to life, working with small budgets to create big results (as realistically as possible).

 

i am so grateful for my time at emerson, which allowed me to explore artistic direction, scenic design, mask making, puppet design, direction, stage management, and even producing our campus' high budget, student led award show, celebrating the hard work and accomplishments of my fellow peers. 

​

now, post college i am eager to create new and experimental experiences in order to inspire others to push the boundaries of what is vs what can be. so much of who i am has been inspired by art that has shown be what the world has to offer, and i am so grateful to be a part of the next generation of artists. 

​

on this website, you will see a few of the projects i have been able to design, but come back soon to see all of the work and joy i have been able to bring to others! hopefully it will be able to inspire you as well.
