Nicole Jones

Born and raised in Hamden, CT Nicole Jones has always had a passion for philanthropy.  Graduating from Hamden High School in 2003, and immediately falling in love with Hampton University during her high school college tour; Nicole earned a Bachelors of Science in Marketing at Hampton University in 2007. Remaining steadfast in her passion, she has always believed true success is not achieved through the ability to perform a profession well, but the ability to bring others along with you.

Nicole has quickly become a multi-discipline marketing professional, with over 8 years of marketing experience, developing the ability to translate strategic insights into results-oriented actions. Presently, Nicole works as a Brand Manager at PepsiCo’s North American Beverages division, in which she manages marketing, advertising, innovation development, & business performance for the Starbucks DoubleShot Beverage brand.

For many, “quality over quantity” is a cliché but for Nicole, it’s a promise that exemplifies her brand. It’s not about how many people you can impact throughout the course of your life, but it’s about the quality of those encounters as we pursue our life’s goals.

Nicole currently resides in Stamford, CT with her husband Richard.
