deBoer began her acting career while a child in her native Toronto.
Initially a shy child, she surprised her parents one day when she informed
them that she'd been selected to play Dorothy in her fourth grade class'
presentation of The Wizard of Oz. With the blessing of her parents,
her grandmother helped her to find an agent. Shortly afterward, deBoer
made her television debut in a Christmas special starring Red Skelton and
Vincent Price. Throughout childhood she was active in commercials and
theater.
During her teen years, she went through a "punk rocker" phase but
found out that her "look" kept her from attaining good roles. By
age seventeen, deBoer was back in front of the camera as a series regular
in the CBC drama 9B. Later, she was a regular on Beyond
Reality, which aired on USA Network, First Resort, and
Catwalk, in the role of Maggi/Mickey, which also starred
her Deepwater Black castmate Kelli Taylor and was telecast on
MTV.
DeBoer's numerous television credits include guest appearances on the
shows, Kids in the Hall, Poltergeist, The Outer
Limits, Psi-Factor, Maniac Mansion and an
episode of Tekwar entitled Chill Factor, which also
featured Julie Khaner (Gen on Deepwater Black).
On film, deBoer was featured in Kids in the Hall-The Movie. She
remarks, "I had done a few episodes with them as this character Laura
and I get recognized more for that than just about anything else I've
done!" When the movie materialized, she says she was thrilled to be a
part of it. She also co-starred in the film National Lampoon's Senior
Trip with Matt Frewer and Tommy Chong.
In her free time, deBoer likes to travel. She has been known to drive to
Los Angeles from Toronto when the mood hits her.

She has a film called C.U.B.E., which she reports is coming out
in the spring of 1998. She plays Leaven, the mathmetician in a group of
people stuck in a cube. It has made its rounds in a few of the movie
festivals and has done pretty well, even picking up an award at the Toronto
Film Festival and a Genie nod.
Nicole also worked with fellow DWB-cast member Gordon Michael Woolvett in the Disney TV Comedy, My Date With The President's Daughter, in which the two hi-jack the main character's car, rob a convenience store, go on a joyride and meet the fictional President of the United States.
We have another trekkie in the cast! Nicole says that Star Trek and
Star Trek: The Next Generation are her favorite sci-fi series, and she
yelled, "Buffy [the Vampire Slayer] RULES!!" right before it aired,
in a YTV interview. Also, a year after filming wrapped up on DWB/MG, she was cast as Ezri Dax, the trill to joined with the Dax symbiont after Jadzia Dax's death on Star Trek: Deep Space Nine.
