👋🏾hi, i'm nicole

I'm a travel creator, digital storyteller and social media strategist based in Orlando, using my journalism background to help Black travelers and people of color navigate the world with confidence. My content lives at the intersection of smart, funny, and real, whether I'm sharing a travel review, dropping Spanish tips, or unpacking the nuances of culture and identity. My unique style and authenticity are what earned me collabs and partnerships with brands like Meta, Cash App, Microsoft, AT&T, Tripadvisor, and even the U.S. State Department and European Union, all within a year and a half of starting this travel creator journey (which still feels wild to say out loud).

Before all this, I was working for news outlets like ABC News and The New York Times (I even helped launch the 1619 Project). That foundation shapes the way I show up online today, with intention, context and humor that actually hits. Traditional news isn't great at that last part.

Also, I'm bilingual (English and Spanish). Y punto.
