Nikky T grew up loving to perform in competitions and talent shows, and the singer and songwriter now is co-owner of The Purp Studio in Los Angeles, a place for musical artists to “indulge their passions.”

Nikky T, formerly Nicole Thompson, graduated from Coronado High School in 2017. She said her time on the island developed a love for the tight-knit community.

With her dad residing in Coronado, she was able to benefit from the frequent interactions that come from knowing a lot of people and being involved in the community, she said.

Nikky T, who says she is half-British and half-Swedish, is currently living in Los Angeles.

She works on her singing and attending her own giggs while co-owning a music studio that specializes in vocal production, music production, engineering, mixing and mastering, and songwriting.

Nikky T has been able to chase her dreams of being a performer by learning from her mistakes and never being afraid to fail, she said.

No matter what you do there is always going to be the fear of failing, but it’s all about learning from your experiences.”
