Nicole's love compassion and kindness towards animals were things that became apparent to me very early on. She is someone who volunteers at the zoo in her free time and consistently goes out of the way to show kindness in everyday life. Over the years I have seen her take phenomenal care of her own pets and have seen how much they adore her firsthand. She is someone who accomplishes what she sets out to do in her career, education, and personal goals. As her friend, I can truly say she is someone I can always count on and never lets me down. She is reliable, accountable, responsible and genuinely a good person. I would trust her any day with my own pet and know they could not be in any better of care.
