Hombrebueno was born and raised in Vancouver, British Columbia and was something of a tomboy throughout her childhood- playing soccer, volleyball, and golf while also running track- sometimes on boys teams, and often better than the boys themselves. It wasn't until many years later while she was attending business school that Nicole discovered her love of acting; After a chance meeting with a casting director, Nicole was offered her first film role where she found a way to connect and communicate through characters and explore her deep curiosity in humans and human behavior; Acting was an exciting, challenging and ever changing way for her to express herself and explore her artistic side. Nicole quickly knew she'd discovered what she wanted to do with her life and she soon left school to pursue this passion as a career. Nicole's drive, discipline and love of the process has allowed her to build on the excitement and enthusiasm she first felt and continue living her dream as an actor, producer, student of human behavior and teller of stories.Nicole is of Spanish and Filipino descent. In her spare time she enjoys traveling, Pilates, yoga, beach volleyball, golfing, spending time with her family and hiking with her French Bulldog.
