By nicole.sumnicht

  • Born

    I was born in Beaver Dam, Wisconsin. I was their second and last child.

  • Disney College Program

    I took part in the Disney College Program. I was able to work at the Tusker House, which is an African buffet style restaurant in the Animal Kingdom. In my free time I would go to the parks for free! This was my first time living far away from my family and truly on my own.

  • College Graduation

    I graduated from UW Oshkosh with my degree in Elementary Education. I was the first person on my dad’s side of the family to attend college.

  • First Pet

    I got my cat, Lucy. She is my first pet outside of our family pets.

  • First Trip Abroad

    I took my first trip abroad to Europe with a friend from the Disney College Program! I got to experience so many new things including visiting the Eiffel Tower, visiting the Anne Frank Museum in Amsterdam, and enjoying the thermal baths in Budapest.

  • Second Trip Abroad

    In 2018 I took my second trip abroad to new places in Europe. This time I navigated Barcelona, Rome, and Madrid!

  • Began Graduate School

    I decided to continue to grow professionally and began my graduate program through UW Superior. This was an especially rare time in my life during COVID-19 when most places were shut down and we weren’t able to travel to see family or friends.
