Nicole Vanacek

I graduated in 1999 with a B.S. in Biology. I never would have dreamed where life would have taken me after Pitt, but thanks to all of the opportunities, the Internships and mentors along the way, I have had the most amazing career as a forensic DNA analyst. My career has taken me around the globe from working on human rights and humanitarian investigations in Latin America and Asia, to working with Iraq scientists in Jordan, and serving overseas in support of Operation Enduring Freedom in Afghanistan. My journey that started at Pitt has been nothing short of extraordinary!

Nicole is a Forensic DNA Analyst, Consultant in North Carolina.
