Nicole Booher joined the University of St. Augustine for Health Sciences in 2021. Nicole Booher earned a Bachelor of Science in Exercise Science from the University of New Mexico. While in school she worked with the adults with disabilities population as a residential instructor and became passionate about occupational therapy.
