I am Nicole, determined entrepreneur, passionate about food, business and empowerment. As a Nigerian living in Dubai, my journey has been one of ambition, resilience, and transformation.

I started my food business with big dreams and built a cloud kitchen from the ground up. But when the diplomatic fallout between Nigeria and the UAE happened, I lost everything overnight. It was one of the hardest moments of my life. Still, I picked myself up, learned from my mistakes, and rebuilt my business on my own—this time, stronger and wiser.

Today, I run Like Mama Does and Simply Pasta, providing high-quality, convenient meal solutions to busy individuals in Dubai. But my mission is bigger than just food. I am passionate about growth, leadership, and becoming a proper employer of labor in Dubai—creating opportunities for others as I continue to rise.

I have built my business personally, from the ground up, balancing the demands of entrepreneurship with the challenges of being a single mother. Every success, every setback, and every lesson has made me stronger. Now, with the right support, I aim to expand my impact, provide jobs, and give back to the community.

Join me in making a difference—not just in food, but in empowering dreams, creating jobs, and proving that resilience always wins.
