Nicole discovered her love for acting when she transferred from Montessori School to Roland Park Country School, where she became part of the drama club, and by age 17 had won a Best Actress award for a competition that included the entire state of Maryland. She then attended The Washington Ballet Company, and despite a bit of disapproval from her parents, she went on to study at New York University’s Tisch School for the Arts, where she took an acting degree and graduated in 1993.

Nicole started with some theatre and modelling work before getting her first break via independent films. She was part of acclaimed films like “Adventure of Two Girls in Love” as well as “Boogie Nights”, which was a big break for her acting career, however, she had a bit of trouble after doing independent films, as she had to wait for some time before finding more opportunities, mentioning how she worked odd jobs to make ends meet. Her first stable opportunity came when she found a role in the series “Soul Food”, in which she played Teri Joseph. The show helped her display her acting and singing prowess, with her popularity helping her land guest roles in numerous television series as well as roles in films, and she’s been in movies like “Remember the Titans” in which she played alongside Denzel Washington. She was also a part of “Brown Sugar” acting alongside Taye Diggs. At least her net worth was steady.

Nicole has won a few awards throughout her career: for her role in “Boogie Nights”, she was given a Screen Actors Guild Award for Outstanding Cast in a Motion Picture. She has received seven Image Awards, five of which were for Outstanding Actress in a Drama Series for her role in “Soul Food”, and the rest for Outstanding Supporting Actress for a Motion Picture.
