Dr. Nicole was born in Indianapolis and grew up in Carmel, Indiana. She attended Carmel High School. She ran track and cross country at Carmel High School. Dr. Nicole chose the field of pediatric dentistry because her father, Dr. James Weddell, founder of Weddell Pediatric Dentistry, inspired her. He taught her clinical excellence, hard work ethic, responsibility to community, and the importance of loving your job. She enjoys working with kids and having fun everyday on the job interacting with patients, families, and staff.

Dr. Nicole enjoys working with the Hispanic community allowing her to keep up her Spanish. She lived and studied abroad in Madrid, Spain, for one year during college. She traveled to Calnali, Mexico, all four years of dental school to provide dental treatment to needy children. During her residency, she travelled to Mexico to provide dental treatment under general anesthesia to needy and medically compromised children.

Dr. Nicole works in private practice and has hospital privileges at Riley and IU North and IU Tipton.  She enjoys spending time with her daughters: Elise and Mia.
