Welcome

It is a pleasure to welcome you to my personal site, http://iamnikkireed.blogspot.com/. As we enter a new age of technology, communication and access to information, I think it is important for young actors and actresses like myself to have their own site. I decided that I want to create and maintain my own professional web page to give people insight to my creative outlets and interests.

Stay tuned, as over the coming weeks the site will evolve, including more information about me, my work and the various charities and organizations with whom I am affiliated.

The best part about The Shreve is the green goop…

I’m currently working in Shreveport. Anyone who has ever been to “The Shreve,” as I like to call it, will tell you there isn’t much to do, unless you are into gambling or fried food. Personally neither of those really do it for me. It’s too hot to be outside, and circulated air gives me the creeps, so I’ve been exploring the local mall and health food store. Notice the words “mall”, and “store”.
Anyways, the other day I bumped into a woman who took it upon herself to tell me about the number of people who go missing in Shreveport. Her reasoning for why it was so easy to lose people was, the “gators”. According to her it’s quite easy to dump bodies in swamps around here because they are almost immediately devoured.  She proceeded to tell me that her son-in-law walked out the door one day and never returned. I decided to take a 30 minute drive today to see these swamps…
It’s breathtaking, and not just because being outside with this humidity makes it so difficult to breath. I have never seen anything like it. I’m either incredibly naive, or very appreciative of nature
                                                      I could spend hours looking at them.

Culver City, California, United States
My name is Nicole Elizabeth Reed, daughter of Seth Willian Reed and Cheryl Maria Houston. I'm the middle child of two brothers. Nathan August Reed and Joey Austin Reed. I was born in West Los Angeles, though I was raised in Culver City, Venice and Mar Vista. Although I'm an actress, I never wanted to be, I would have been satisfied just doing hair. When I was a little girl I wanted to help animals I knew that I wanted that. And I do. I volunteer at many pet shelters and if I fall in love with them. I usually take them home with me. I love animals. I have 3 dogs & a horse. I use to always go horseback riding when I was young. I have 4 tattoos and 16 piercings.
