By day, Noelle masquerades as mild-mannered worker bee at AOL. The rest of the time, she runs OhnoZone.net, a blog for Apolo Ohno and short track news.

Nolle is based out of Washington D.C., but has been travelling to short track events around the world since 2002 taking photos. Ohnozone has lead Noelle to many opportunities as a journalist and photographer which she has embraced. Considering that she attends at least 3 events a year, she has photos of more short track events than than any professional photographer.

She attended the 2006 Winter Olympics in Turino as a journalist for AOL, interviewing Olympic athletes and blogging for AOL. Her Ohnozone site is one of the most trafficked short track sites on the web.
