Just a little over a year after Elaine’s death, Nicole moved to
Arizona in July of 1999 to pursue an Associate’s degree in Graphic Design & to start a new beginning.  However, every day without Elaine, is a struggle for Nicole & not having Justice for Elaine is even more of a struggle. It always ate away at Nicole that Elaine's murder case was never given the proper attention it should have received on 05/02/1998, when Nicole was just 18 years old. Nicole has been heartbroken all these years. Nicole does believe in the power of prayer & in GOD. Nicole knows that Elaine's murder case can & will be solved, but Nicole can not do it alone & Nicole needs your support.

My favorite picture of us. :)

As Nicole tries to seek justice for her own mother Elaine, Nicole is taking individual courses for a Non Profit Management certification in Phoenix, Arizona. Nicole wishes to start up a non-profit organization that will help solve other cold case files nationwide.  Nicole has also been selected by an attorney from a reputable law firm in Phoenix, Arizona for probono work to help set up the non-profit organization properly & professionally.
