Experience
Nicole first began testing and trying out products through personal review blogs. Paralleling that journey was writing articles for the clients of SEO marketing companies and always being drawn to topics related to home and DIY. Eventually, that bloomed into a desire to pursue editorial opportunities and share her experience and knowledge with a larger audience. Since then, she has written for several publications in addition to Bob Vila, including Better Homes and Gardens, Mental Floss, and more.
