After a series of blessings in disguise, years of teaching physical education, and resorting to the safe route, I finally took the leap of faith to pursue my love of acting and entertainment. In 2015, I started my own YouTube channel, ‘Nicki Lee Bakes,’ where I starred as the quirky host of a comedy baking show, and eventually branched out into other styles of video creation. I continue to produce, edit, and create my own content on the platform, while also studying and perfecting my craft at The Barrow Group in New York City.

Aside from acting, I love animals, spending time with family, playing volleyball, and a good, long bubble bath. In my free time, I eat quite a bit of Italian food, imitate my family members, and play fetch with my 12-year-old dog Frank. I’m also exceptionally talented at finding 4-leaf clovers.
