Students enter ideas and we help grow the entrepreneur and idea.

As the Program Coordinator at UWM Lubar Entrepreneurship Center (LEC), Nicole continues to connect students and faculty to entrepreneurial and design thinking principles. She designs and delivers interactive Pop Ups throughout campus. She also curates the experiences in the UWM Student Startup Challenge so that student entrepreneurs accomplish their dreams. The team at LEC creates a space to be collaborative, open-minded, and inspired. We believe all students should be equipped with problem solving skills, the ability to collaborate and think creatively and innovatively.

Nicole has attended the Teaching and Learning Studio at the Stanford d.school as well as served as a FAB member (TWICE) at the UIF Silicon Valley Meetup in Fall 2017 and March 2018. Once a UIF ALWAYS a UIF.
