My name is Nicole. I’m an entrepreneur and pop culture enthusiast.

At 23, I successfully founded, scaled, and sold FlipRings—a brand that started as a dorm room idea and grew into a movement. Inspired by the desire to help people express their emotions in a fun and unique way, I developed colorful, reversible silicone rings to allow young women to express themselves without saying a word. Over 4 ½ years, I built a vibrant community of 50,000, created over 150 styles, and sold over 150,000 rings, all while managing the business as a full-time college student.

My journey took us from social media buzz to retail shelves in Urban Outfitters, with a team of college ambassadors and fans nationwide. I’m proud to have been recognized as the College of Charleston’s Student Entrepreneur of the Year, but even more proud of the millions of smiles FlipRings generated.

Having sold FlipRings, I’m excited to embark on my next adventure. My passion lies in connecting brands with consumers through innovative marketing, social media, and storytelling. I’m eager to apply my experience to a culturally relevant brand in the beauty, fashion, or lifestyle space.
