Nicole Haase Jeopardy Contestant Profile
Nicole Haase is a Milwaukee-based freelance journalist known for her extensive work covering women’s sports, particularly women’s hockey. Raised in Glendale, Wisconsin, she developed an early interest in writing and went on to study print journalism and Spanish at Loyola University New Orleans, graduating in 2003. After Hurricane Katrina disrupted life in Louisiana, she moved back to the Milwaukee area and later expanded her skill set by studying baking and pastry at Waukesha County Technical College. Her career blends journalism, communications roles, and culinary experience, and she has been a consistent voice in women’s sports media for more than twenty years.
She has written for major outlets such as BBC, ESPNW, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, MLS.com, SI.com, SBNation, and many more. She is one of the only writers at SBNation exclusively covering women’s college hockey and has traveled internationally to cover IIHF U18 Women’s World Championships across Europe. Beyond journalism, she has held communications positions, bakery roles, and food administration jobs before transitioning primarily to freelance reporting. Since 2020, she has also worked part-time as a school secretary at Oconomowoc High School.
Nicole’s recent spotlight comes from her appearance on “Jeopardy!”, a lifelong favorite show she watches nightly with her husband, Andy. The two met through a shared high school friend group and have been married for eleven years. Her journey onto the show included online tests, Zoom auditions, mock games, and a filming trip to California. Outside of work, she enjoys attending sporting events around the world, reading, sewing, trivia, and spending time with her basset hound, Ripley. Her writing focuses on the intersections of sports, culture, and feminism, and she remains passionate about spotlighting under-reported stories. She describes herself as a grammar-obsessed storyteller who thrives on uncovering people’s experiences.
