Amanda was born on April 5, 1992 in Kansas City, MO to Greg and Kelly (Neidig) Nichols.

She graduated from NYU with a Bachelor’s in East Asian Studies and Journalism. She was fluent in 3 languages: English, Japanese, and Chinese. While in New York, she served internships at HGTV and Food Network. In her free time she loved to read, write, watching movies, animé art and Marvel Comics. Most of all she loved spending time with her siblings and family.
