While the COVID-19 pandemic pushed many students online, one Waukesha teen used the time home to her advantage – graduating from high school and college in the same school year.
Nicole Cheesman is learning the ins and outs, working at the family business, Sussex Tool and Supply, but is still steadfast toward many dreams.
"I can’t wait to take over the company," Cheesman said. "Work in stocks and work in accounting and work and all the other areas that can help just fill my whole profile."
Cheesman is able to start the process after getting a high school diploma and an associate's degree from Waukesha County Technical College at just 17 years old.
