A fresh new face in the entertainment industry, actress Nicole has quickly become one to watch this year. Nicole can currently be seen starring in Nickelodeon’s hit series “I am Frankie.” The show follows the life of ‘Frankie Gaines,’ who appears to be your average teenager. However, we come to find out Frankie has a secret – that she is actually a cutting-edge, experimental android that must hide her true identity to avoid being tracked down by the evil tech company EGG Labs.
Nicole stars as ‘Dayton Reyes,’ Frankie’s confident, intelligent best friend who makes it her duty to teach Frankie all about the wonders of Sepulveda High, what it means to be a human, and how to fit in with a judgmental society. Season 1 debuted in September 2017 and was an instant hit for the network.
