Nicole Lyn
Nicole Lyn was born in Brampton, Ontario, Canada to parents Cheryl Gabay and Peter Lyn. Her love for the arts began at 3-years-old, when she started taking dance classes in her hometown. At just eight, she won enrollment into Toronto's prestigious Claude Watson School for artistically gifted students and immersed herself in the performing arts, also excelling academically. Nicole also cultivated her passion for dance at the National Ballet School of Canada. She was soon modeling and appearing in Canadian and U.S. national commercials, which led to regular roles on two Canadian series, (Ramona (1988) and Eric's World (1990)), by age 12.

After taking a three year hiatus from acting professionally to attend high school in Mandeville, Jamaica, Nicole returned to Canada and landed a leading role on the Fox's teen sitcom Student Bodies (1997), which ran for 3 seasons. By the time she was 18, she was well known for her roles on Canadian television, and was a prominent presence in Toronto's entertainment community. In 2000, Nicole moved to Los Angeles, where she met her husband, actor Dulé Hill. The couple married in Montego Bay, Jamaica in 2004.

In addition to her television and film work, Nicole has made a name for herself as DJ Ms. Nix, rocking venues in L.A., NYC and Miami. In just a few short years, Nix established herself as a "music lover's deejay" spinning regularly at notable venues and events across the country. She's been featured in the pages of InStyle, Vanity Fair, Ebony, InTouch, Life & Style, Page Six, Us Weekly, Manhattan, and Angeleno magazines. Television appearances include The Queen Latifah Show, Good Morning America, BET's 106 & Park, RevoltLive and MTV2's Hip Hop Squares, as the show's resident DJ and co-host.
