About

I’m an enthusiastic information gatherer. I love aggregating all the facts and distilling them in refreshing and easy-to-understand content. I want to work someplace where I can break news, interact with readers and be waist deep in work.

My name is Nicole. Unlike some other people, I don’t believe in the death of journalism. While our medium may have changed, our mission remains the same: to present accurate information to the public.
