Nicole Kulovany

Nicole Kulovany, former Miss New York, started her career just out of college. And in her journey, she continuously ended up alongside these anomaly start-up business owners, who, in the end, set records. She learned three things: money matters, drive, and skillset. Without all three, you're toast.

In the past, she watched as these top dogs took her mother's mortgage or their very last funds from their IRA and won huge contracts, taking over market share. What's the secret? She said, “Capital and guts.” It takes guts.

She is now one of the heads of a firm in Wall Street who is lending out huge capital. In just one month, she started gaining company-wide recognition with her performance. She feels her heroism this year is helping business owners do more than just float through and survive, but to "thrive out of 2020 to the mountaintops."
