Pros

Nicole was absolutely fantastic to work with. I had a really rough time with another agency position and Nicole has been so reassuring and supportive every step of the way. Nicole has frequent contact with me and was able to get me a contract in under a week. She is absolutely amazing. I can’t say enough great things about her.

Cons

NONE!
