Nicole has called Missoula home since 2004 and has dedicated her career to strengthening communities through education, advocacy, and nonprofit leadership. As Executive Director of the Jeannette Rankin Peace Center, she is committed to creating spaces where people can learn from one another, build meaningful relationships, and work together toward a more compassionate and just world. Her background in art, education, and anthropology continues to shape her creative, collaborative approach to leadership.

When she's not at the Peace Center, you'll likely find Nicole hiking, biking, skiing, tending her garden, traveling, exploring museums, spending time with her two adult children and friends, or enjoying a friendly game of pickleball.
