Meet Nicole
Nicole Russell is an experienced lawyer with a passion for surrogacy, which arose out of her own fertility challenges. In 2016, Nicole and her husband experienced the surrogacy process first-hand when Nicole’s best friend offered to be their surrogate in an attempt for them to have a child. Through the wonderful kindness of their friend, they now have a beautiful daughter. Nicole has channeled her own personal experience, as an intended parent in an Australian surrogacy arrangement, into a professional passion to assist others.
