Nicole Placek Autobiography
I am Nicole Placek, a freshman here at UNK. I was born on April 20, 1998. I am a double major, I am going into Elementary Education and Special Education. Once you get to know me, you will see the love that I have for children. From a young age my dream was to be a teacher.

I am the only daughter of my parents with a little brother who is 16 and a sophomore in High School. Family is very important to me, they always have and they always will be.

I went to Saint Agnes Academy a Catholic grade school and middle school in Alliance from Preschool until I graduated in eighth grade.

In fourth grade my cousin Trevor committed suicide and I got tested for Dyslexia. Although both were very hard I survived and kept moving forward. I continued working hard and proving to myself that I was going to get through anything and everything, I depended on God and he helped me succeed. My freshman year my parents separated and my heart broke. I hurt more than ever before and was asking God why he was doing this to my family and I. My brother and I went back and forth for month after months. I pretended I was alright and was continuing to be strong for my brother.

    Most days I came home to an empty house but I learned to care for myself and I grew up, maybe before I was ready. Friends, sports, hobbies, school and work consumed most of my time. One of my best friends was a boy named Jacob, who pushed me to enroll in the most challenging classes and make the best grades possible. We were competitive, but we both wanted each other to do the best imaginable in everything. Every chance I had, I spent it with him and his family. An empty house no longer consumed my afternoons. Mid sophomore year, Jacob died in a car crash, a car that I almost got into. My world seemed over, including my grades, as if I needed him to make the marks I had before. Returning to the grades and personality that I had before seemed somewhat impossible. However, I knew there was a reason that I did not get into that car that day, I had a purpose. Life seemed to be full of gaps, yet God began to fill them. To this day, every test I take, everything I do, I imagine both Jacob and my father sitting beside me, telling me to live out my purpose, whatever it may be. My top competitor was gone, but I gained an angel that day, one who is by my side in everything I do. Although there existed a period that I struggled, I overcame…

    My vision is to someday be a missionary in China. God called me there when I was 10 years old. He used a youth pastor and told me that I would be missionary in China someday. I did not really feel like that is what God wanted for me at the time, but now I do. There is a great need for missionaries. There are many people there that have not heard about the gospel yet, and the people that do, do not have the Bible and Christian literature to grow in their walk with the almighty God that loves them so much. I want to be used by God in bringing them the things they need.…

    Catholicism has always been the central religion in my family heritage. Each of my family members, originating back to my great grandmother have been raised Roman Catholic. Both on my mother and father’s sides of the family they practice Catholicism. My entire life has been centralized around faith and believing in one God. I attended Catholic School from 2nd to 12th grade and I gained a large amount from the faith filled environment. However, it was not until I was 15 years old that I became fully involved with my relationship with God and practiced Catholicism properly. The reason I became so involved with my relationship with God was because I attended a Catholic Youth Conference in Atlanta, Georgia called, “Steubenville Catholic Youth…

    There are many types of goals. Growing up, I always dreamed of being two things: a mother and a nurse. I am blessed to have two wonderful children ages 14 and 16 and have had the privilege of being able to be a stay-at-home mom during their younger years. Now that they are older and a bit more independent, I have decided to go back to school and fulfill my goal of earning my degree in Nursing. Throughout the years of growing and maturing, I have learned how important it is to have good morals, values, goals, a passion for something, and a good education. I have not only taught my children the importance of these characteristics, but I have also shown them that regardless of one’s age or stage in life, that…
