Life and career

edit

Nikole attended Oregon State University (OSU) and in her third year at OSU, she interned at the Cheetah Conservation Fund in Namibia.[3] She intended to move to Africa to work with wild animals but the COVID-19 pandemic disrupted her plans. As a result, she began making zoology-related content on TikTok after graduating from OSU in 2020.[3][4][5]

Her videos discussing various animals, particularly on TikTok, have been noted by media outlets.[6][7][8] At VidCon 2024, Nikole was a guest speaker at two panels: "Breaking Boundaries: Amplifying LGBTQ+ Voices" and "Live, Laugh, Learn: Educating the Internet".[9] VidCon's co-founder Hank Green has referenced Nikole as a content creator he admires.[10]

Based in Los Angeles,[9] Nikole is also a musician and began playing guitar when she was eight.[3] She released a four-track EP in 2020.[3]
