How educated is DJ Khaled's wife?

She completed her higher education at Marymount Manhattan College with a Bachelor’s degree in fine arts.
She also acquired her master’s degree in education from Fordham University and graduated in 2005.
Stint at ABU
In 2011, she went into business by starting a small scale apparel company going by the name ABU Apparel. Nicole sold fashionable apparels, and through that label, she inspired her clients to define their style and follow their trends. ABU for "ALWAYS BE YOU" means you should always have high confidence yourself no matter your circumstances, size, color or shape. The company did well and made enough profits for her to enroll DJ Khaled as one of her brand ambassadors.
With time, the profit margins went even higher, and for any business person, this is good news. But this window of success did not open for long, as at some point, the business started registering losses. The downward trend only got worse by the day and compelled ABU to shut down.

To date, her primary focus is to increase Khaled's stocks as the business manager. The empire has since registered remarkable growth under her management.
Where it all started with DJ Khaled
The Nick Minaj proposal
Nicole and Khaled’s love affair started way before he acquired fame in the music industry in the early 1990s. Although Khaled is quite vocal on social media, he has never shared precisely how he met Tuck. It is believed they first met at an event, and although each of them achieved personal success, their bond of friendship only got better.
However, men can be unpredictable sometimes. In 2013, when everyone was expecting the couple to settle down, DJ Khaled shocked their fans by proposing to Nicki Minaj on MTV YouTube channel. In a seemingly confident tone, he flushed out a $500000 engagement ring and asked the famous question, “Nicki Minaj, will you marry me? And most characteristically, Khaled pressed on;
"We got the same symptoms, we both suffering from success. You out there touring, you out there hustling, you out there making music, you out there winning. I understand. That's why I feel like you need a man like me in your life."
Whether he was serious or not, it is a question only Khaled can answer, but when contacted for a comment, Nicki Minaj dismissed the whole incident as a clever joke intended to promote the song "I wanna be with you."
Nobody in my real life took it seriously. Everybody just hit me like, ‘LOL. Yo, Khaled is crazy.’ Khaled is my brother, and Khaled was not serious with that damn proposal, ya'll… Please let it go. He was kidding. He's not attracted to me, and he doesn't like me. We're brother and sister. She said.
A little later though, Khaled also came public and confirmed that it was indeed a prank. If indeed that was a promotion idea, then his wife was privy to the whole scheme. Remember she is the private business manager, and this may provide an explanation as to why there was no public shock and outrage from her.

Tuck and Khaled had an 11-year casual relationship and only got engaged when their son Asahd Tuck Khaled was born in 2016.

On the night he was born, the snap chat King got so excited that he documented the entire process.
