Nicole Ann Shanahan (born September 26, 1985)[1] is an American attorney. A Silicon Valley lawyer, she is currently Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s running mate in his 2024 independent presidential campaign.

Born in California, Shanahan graduated from the University of Puget Sound and the Santa Clara University School of Law.[2] Before law school, Shanahan worked as a paralegal and then as a patent specialist at the defensive patent aggregator RPX Corp.[2][3] She was a fellow at Stanford Law School's CodeX, Stanford Center for Legal Informatics.[4][5][6]

Shanahan married Google co-founder Sergey Brin in 2018; they separated in 2021 and divorced in 2023.[7][8][9] Shanahan has a net worth reportedly over $1 billion, predominantly as a result of her divorce from Brin.[10] She established a private foundation, Bia-Echo, in 2019. The foundation promotes research to lengthen the human reproductive lifespan.[11][12]

In March 2024, Kennedy named Shanahan as his vice presidential running mate.[13] Shanahan has questioned the scientific consensus on vaccine safety and efficacy.[13][14][15]
