Complete with feather boa, Nickoleta grew up idolizing glamorous actresses in older movies. Nickoleta’s drinking didn’t start until college, but looking back she can see how her characteristics led up to her becoming an alcoholic even before she started drinking.

Nickoleta has been sober since January 2007 and is an amazing example that there is life after alcohol!
