In the theater Nikki has graced stages both internationally and all across the United States. She toured with Broadway musical, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, for a year, and has performed at venues such as the Hollywood Bowl, Shrine Auditorium (where many Academy Awards, Grammys and Emmys have been held), the Mark Taper Forum, Walt Disney World, Universal Studios Japan, aboard cruise ships, and many more. During the Holiday season Nikki stays quite busy running her successful caroling company, the Tinseltone Carolers, with long-time friend and business partner, Joe Donohoe. With branches in Los Angeles, San Diego, Las Vegas and soon Atlanta (2017), the Tinseltones is a fast-growing small company with a big heart that puts over 70 singers to work each Christmastime spreading Holiday cheer at venues such as Rodeo Drive, the San Diego Zoo, the Las Vegas strip, and many more. The Tinseltones also make television appearances and have been seen singing on VH1 with Martha Stewart and Snoop Dogg, the Dr. Phil Show, commercials for the Game Show Network and more. In her down time Nikki enjoys traveling, snow skiing and water sports; she's SCUBA certified, loves to stand-up jet ski, water ski, practice stand-up paddle board yoga, and partake in any other fun activity the water has to offer. She's passionate about equal rights for all, particularly when it comes to the LGBTQ community, as her biological father, author Alexus Sheppard, is transgender. Nikki maintains a close relationship with her and even wrote a chapter in Alexus' newly released book, From Both Sides Now- a Memoir, available on Amazon.
