What's In a Name
It might be best to just explain that Nicole thanks her ancestry for her imagination and creativity. The name is a nod to the eccentric women in her family-starting with her grandmother, Amelia Burlock. Amelia wanted to join the mafia at age 75. This little fantasy came from her work as a secretary for some gentlemen in Brooklyn that were completely charmed by her. There is also a story of her giving herself a chin-lift with Scotch-tape and thought no one would notice. She was quirky and eccentric, to say the least. These traits were passed down, first to Nicole's aunt and mother and then to her and are now expressed in her work.
