From: Texas, USA.
Growing up in Texas, Nicole was introduced to the world of beauty pageants at a young age. Her natural charisma and stunning looks made her a local favourite, and for years, she excelled on the pageant circuit, collecting titles and accolades.
However, despite the applause and the crowns, Nicole felt confined by the definition of beauty on the pageant circuit. She knew she was strong and could build lots of hard, striated muscle, and yearned for a platform to show off what she could become - a longing that led her to the world of bodybuilding. To Nicole, huge hosepipe veins and thick heavy muscles are as beautiful as long flowing hair and perfectly applied makeup.
During her debut season she traded first and second place finishes at multiple contests with another newcomer named Ayesha Kumar. Some judges leaning towards Ayesha's pure mass and others rewarding Nicole's ability to come in shredded for almost any contest. The two struck up a friendly rivalry which is often less than friendly!
From time to time Nicole likes to enter beauty pageants to show mainstream audiences that beauty can come with veins and muscles bulging through a swimsuit, and not just in the form of skinny girls! Her desire to make muscles more palatable to the world of beauty is a cause that she shares with her best friend and former European supermodel Maria Torres.
