Meet Nikki, our citizen of the week!

Nikki lives at 14419 Island View in one of the tall, old-fashioned homes that can be found along the beach in Lakeview. She has been exploring the lakeshore since July 19, 2004, and you wouldn't believe all the treasures she's found with her metal detector!

Judging by Nikki's vast collection of trophies, you'd probably think that she's a very competitive person. Nothing could be further from the truth, however! While Nikki enjoys doing well in school and sports, she's really a very easygoing person. Nikki likes to do a good job when possible, but she won't allow herself to get stressed out if things don't go as planned. This laidback approach to life, along with her genuine friendliness, has made Nikki very popular with the other students at Millsberry Academy.

Nikki is also very outgoing and self-confident. Though she was very shy in her younger years, Nikki has since discovered that she loves to sing and perform onstage. Since then, Nikki's love of music has given her the confidence to sing in front of large audiences without any nervousness. After mastering the ability to perform before live crowds, Nikki decided to see if she was equally capable of singing well on recordings. She headed over to the Millsberry Recording Studio and composed a few tracks of her very own. Thankfully, her talent showed up as wonderfully on tape as it does onstage, and since then, one of her songs has shot to the top of the Cinnamon Toast Crunch Top Ten chart!

When Nikki wants to relax, she usually goes on a shopping trip to a mall with her friends. Nikki loves flipping through the racks at music stores and listening to samples from all the newest rap, R&B, and pop albums. In the summer months, Nikki can often be found at a pool in her spare time. If you're ever hanging out at the pool and see a swimmer in a light blue, silver, and white bathing suit gliding through the water, it'll probably be Nikki!

Thanks for being a great citizen, Nikki, and congratulations on being named Millsberry's citizen of the week.
