Our Forbes & Company Employee Spotlight is on our receptionist, Nicole Koehler. Nicole enjoys our fun company culture, and she loves working with our staff and clients. Nicole’s fight for survival (which we greatly admire) and her endearment for cats are just two of the facets we learned about her through her responses to our questions. We invite you to read on and get to know Nicole a little better.
