Nicole Graham

For as long as she can remember, Nicole has been captivated by the ocean. When she was 18, she left her landlocked home of Colorado and traded in pine trees for palm trees to live on the island of Oʻahu, Hawaiʻi. Nicole received her Bachelors Degree in Public Health and Spanish from the University of Hawaiʻi in 3 years. When she was in college, she started working on sailing catamarans taking people snorkeling, sailing, and whale watching. However, what was supposed to be a college job has turned into a lifelong passion and career. Last year Nicole received her USCG 50 ton captains license with a sailing endorsement and has sailed over 7,500 miles offshore in the Pacific Ocean between Hawaiʻi, Palmyra Atoll, Kiribati, and French Polynesia. When she isnʻt sailing, Nicole enjoys free diving, scuba diving, jewelry making, hiking and knitting.
