In 2010, Nichole switched gears to the fashion industry, where she managed marketing for an upscale luxury mall, before continuing on to her own marketing consulting pursuits for her company Conversa Group.
Nichole also finds time to support her community, serving on the Saks Fifth Avenue Style Council, serving as an Executive Committee Member for Luke’s Wings, as well as sitting on various host committees for other well-known charitable organizations in the D.C. area.
When Nichole isn’t working, she enjoys fashion, socializing in and around DC, as well as any adventures that might come her way, for which this blog is based on.
