Nicole is the youngest child and youngest daughter of Bret and Susan Douglas. Born in Culver City, California, Nikki (as she is often called) is known as the bubbly, energetic firecracker. Bret nicknamed her "Firefly" on account of she illuminated the room when she was born. Nikki is a recent graduate of Tennessee State University, where she received her Bachelors Degree in Education. Much like her great-grandfather, her grandmother, and her father, Nikki's dream is to be a teacher. She has yet to decide if she wants to teach elementary or high school, but she knows that she wants to teach... actually, she would like nothing more than to be her dad's successor and teach Kindergarten-- a passing of the torch, if you will! Nikki is known to show great leadership skills, despite being the youngest, and she does not have a problem with sharing the spotlight, much less stepping out completely in order for someone else to have their moment in the sun. Nikki has also been blessed with four best friends that she has known since Kindergarten-- Anna-Jane Overton, Barbara Louise Zuckerman, Diane Yvette Porterson, and Andrea Michelle Cornette. Together this cute quintet is known as the Chickadees. They received this cute little nickname from their former Kindergarten teacher, the late Clark Kenneth Jones. Nikki admittedly is a big kid at heart; she considers it a compliment when someone refers to her as a "little girl," given the fact that she is 5'1" and she has the sweetest little voice.
