Nicole Akins

Submitted by: April Gonzalez-Merrill

I would love to nominate a very good and faithful friend of mine. She not only has been a great wife, mother and friend, but she does so much for her community and the young women she helps put through college on scholarships through the Miss Lane County program (Miss America Organization.) I have known Nicole for about 13 years and I have always witnessed a woman that has been driven to help others be the best that they can be. She is a dedicated mother who, despite being a military wife as well, was willing to give up a career to spend quality time to her child, Abigail. I can't think of a more deserving young woman who has done so much in her to serving others and I would love to see her win this "Mom Makeover Contest." Thank you for your time and consideration.
