I'M NICOLE!👋
#1 fan of a squiggly brand journey, country music enthusiast, and translator of people, situations + words.
I grew up living all over Europe, in environments where I often didn’t speak the same language as everyone else. Finding my own creative ways to communicate, share my personality and build strong connections quickly became a speciality.
Knowing how stubborn deliberate I am about doing things on my own terms has meant that building a business where I could continue my squiggly journey has always been essential.
I spent six years living out the marketing career girlie dream in London - but also growing my own brand in the ‘after hours’. This is where Five to Nine was born. Following a few iterations of services, I realised where my true passion and expertise lie: using my experience in brand communication and community growth to help you translate your brand into new (online) environments.
Nowadays I get to spend my time hosting personal branding workshops, coaching solopreneurs on showing up on LinkedIn and working with some amazing global brands. It’s varied, squiggly A F, and allows me to continue to travelling and exploring.
Because for me, that’s the whole point.
PERSONALThink of me as
your
brand
translator.
My entire life I’ve been able to translate things to suit the context — and that’s what I do for your brand. With a unique ability to see different perspectives and find the things that create real value, I’m the person you want on your side when creating a brand that resonates. I’m a huge believer that businesses have to go deeper than logos and colours to connect with people, so everyone I work with is guided using a unique blend of strategy + personality to cultivate a personal brand that works perfectly in every single setting.
Personal things that bring me joy:
Morning walks around a park with one of the four (yes, four!) dogs I look after
Dragging myself out of bed early to see pretty pink morning skies in a foreign country
Blasting country music in the car while driving with the windows down in summer
Leading with a clear strategy, understanding, and personality (+ Dolly Parton tunes)
Spending “unnecessary” amounts of money on iced coffee every day
Joining work calls from unexpected new remote working locations
Bringing more playfulness into my adult life to make my inner child happy
Making every single new environment I’m in beautiful, homey and warm
