Her educational program delves into crucial topics such as the cognitive and emotional ramifications of breathing patterns, the critical dangers of mouth breathing, and the often-overlooked signs of sleep-disordered breathing, which can be mistakenly associated with ADHD.

She is a national and international speaker, as well as a published author on the topics of educational neuroscience, orofacial myofunctional therapy, airway function disorders and the autonomic nervous system, and sleep wellness in pediatrics. Her first article for The ASHA Leader (2015) on sleep-disordered breathing and tongue-ties garnered a Bronze Excel Award from Association Media & Publishing for Best Column.

Nicole is a passionate advocate for interdisciplinary collaboration and public health awareness on airway health and sleep. Alongside an interdisciplinary team of colleagues on the FAIREST: Functional AIRway Evaluation Screening Tool (Pilot Study, Phase 1), her research on nasal breathing screening and tongue mobility has been published in the International Journal of Otorhinolaryngology and the Journal of Oral Rehabilitation respectively. Nicole is 2019 recipient of the Rising Star Investigator Award from the Academy of Applied Myofunctional Sciences (AAMS) for Great Promise in the Advancement of Medicine via Myofunctional Sciences.
