Nikki Fiveash - Back of House Hospitality Coordinator

Those that are crazy enough to think they can change the world are the ones that will. These words are in the signature line of Nikki’s email and in every social media profile she has. She doesn’t just think she can change the world she knows she can. Nikki’s professional life started as a hairstylist from a small tech school in Georgia, but has sent her all over the world working in beauty and fashion. She by trade is a hairstylist, but by nature is a connector.

One of her greatest gifts/joys is to find just the right way to connect people, projects, organizations and ideas. While most of Nikki’s professional life, almost 30 years have been in the beauty and fashion industry those years have included being a stylist, educator, platform artist, manager, owner, corporate educational/sales manager, tradeshow manager, back stage manager, beauty director, fundraiser, social media manager, sponsorship coordinator and most of all cheerleader to her team. She is talented at managing the wide variety of personalities and experiences that are always a part of a creative network. Nikki is a big believer in sharing her knowledge and experience in work and life with the next generation. This makes her an amazing leader.

Outside her professional world Nikki has worked extensively with her church various nonprofit organizations putting her gifts and talents to work making that change in the world she knows she can. She can easily go from chairing a steering committee for a gala, to a show in Paris, to digging a water well in the Amazon with an exuberant smile on her face. Don’t take her humor or flexible style for granted though, she is fierce, fearless, driven and always gets the job done.
