About Nicole
Nicole Vinnola is an Emmy-award winning producer, freelance content creator and filmmaker. A fellowship awarded to her by The International Radio and Television Society placed her on her first job, working on The View with Barbara Walters on ABC, and the rest is history. After spending some years in the newsroom of PBS’ The NewsHour with Jim Lehrer she stepped into freelancing and enjoyed building her 20+ year career and network bouncing around the country — and the world. Nicole was awarded an NATAS Regional Emmy in 1997, and earned a nomination for a Daytime Emmy in 2011. Her community continues to expand with relationships in fiction storytelling, with the support of Film Independent’s Talent Development program; Project Involve. At the heart of her work is her genuine care for people and hearing about their experiences with the world.
Today, as a content creator, writer, editor and holistic producer, Nicole’s focus is on listening, supporting and holding space for authentic experiences to unfold.
