“Nicci,” as she is affectionately known, taught for more than two decades. After working at the Pennsylvania School for the Deaf in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, she became a stay-at-home mom and opened Lil’Blessings Family Daycare, in Media, Pennsylvania. In addition to later teaching in public and private schools, Nicolle has been a Sign Language, music, and math instructor to children as well as adults. She is currently the Director of Delaware Technical and Community College's Child Development Center in Wilmington, Delaware, and also co-hosts "Straight Talk" on Channel 28 in Wilmington, Delaware.
 

A fitness and nutrition enthusiast, Nicolle is certified to teach aerobics and kickboxing. With the Lymphoma and Leukemia Society’s Team–in-Training program, she completed two marathons as a racewalker – Dublin, Ireland and Anchorage, Alaska. Nicolle also enjoys performing in musical theatre productions and taking adult dance classes such as tap and ballroom dancing. Through her company Nvision, Nicolle creates cakes for various occasions.

For over ten years, Nicolle has been a part of The Resurrection Center of Wilmington, Delaware  under the leadership of Bishop S. Todd Townsend, Sr. and Pastor Cleo V. Townsend. She serves in the following capacities: leader in the R.O.Y.A.L.T.Y. Singles’ Ministry, facilitator for the Separated and Divorced class, member of the Praise Team and Voices of Resurrection Choir, Victorious In Praise Adult Dance Ministry, and Sign Language interpreter.

Nicolle is the proud mother of two. Son Jerry is a junior at the University of South Carolina majoring in Management and Finance with a concentration in Entrepreneurialism. Daughter Nicalia is a freshman at the University of Delaware majoring in Marketing and Entrepreneurialism.

As a motivational speaker, Nicolle founded NspireD to motivate, guide, and breathe life into others. Her “Diamonds of Destiny” seminar was designed for separated and divorced women. In a safe environment, suddenly single women can better understand their value as God’s Diamonds on a journey toward Destiny! In addition to writing a book that will serve as “spiritual survival guide for suddenly single women,” Nicolle continues to expand her gift as a singer/songwriter.

I Corinthians 10:13 is her favorite scripture:

“No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful,
who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will
also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it.”
