Nicole Morales is an eighteen-year-old American girl and a survivor of Hurricane Katrina. A lifelong resident of New Orleans, she was one of the thousands of Southern refugees who made their way north in the aftermath of the storm.

Nicole spent her senior year of high school with a family in Syracuse, New York, while her mother attempted to salvage what was left of their home back in Louisiana. Her original school, Mount Carmel Academy, in New Orleans, had been inundated under ten feet of water, leaving her with no school records or evidence of her educational background. Left with the choice to study at transitional schools with no promise of a high school degree, Nicole made the decision to leave in order to secure her high school education and be able to attend college. In August of 2006, as the one-year anniversary of Hurricane Katrina approached, People Magazine published excerpts from a diary that Nicole kept during her time in New York.
