Nicole Smolen attended SHINE in January 2005 at the age of 8, soon after that she left for Los Angeles. Nicole is with Discover Management- Debra-Lynn Findon, Osbrink Talent Agency, and Rage Models.

Says Nicole’s Mom, Jo Ann, “Nicole continues to audition, work, and train and grow as an actor, this has been such a wonderful experience. This has all been possible because of a post card sent to our mailbox one afternoon, and a little girl begging to go take acting classes, then performing at SHINE. We are so grateful to AMTC for such an amazing opportunity to be seen by top agents, managers, and casting directors and a special thanks to each and everyone that has made this journey so special we are truly grateful.”
