About

Hi, I’m Nikki.

I’m a content strategist, writer, editor, and communications leader with more than a decade of experience creating research-informed content strategies for leading health systems, top universities, and well-known clients in other industries.

In my current role at Huge, I work at the point where research, design, and technology overlap, helping ambitious brands build better digital experiences. Many of my projects are covered by NDAs, so I can’t share client names or work in progress here, but I’m always happy to talk through details with prospective partners and clients.

I thrive in workplaces where editorial judgment meets structure. I excel at building systems that help teams decide what to publish and when, keep information accurate over time, and produce content at scale. From creating style guides and approval workflows to content calendars and QA processes, this type of work was at the heart of my previous roles at both NYU Langone Health and Albert Einstein College of Medicine.

Independent of my job, I believe healthcare is a human right and am passionate about health equity and wellbeing for historically marginalized people, including communities of color, LGBTQ+ folks, and low-income and disenfranchised individuals. In my free time, I organize with New York City for Abortion Rights, volunteer with the Campaign for New York Health, and serve on the editorial collective for Science for the People Magazine.

My strengths include editorial governance, content production planning, project management, and staff mentorship and development. I’m always open to project-based work, including copywriting, research and analysis, customer persona development, journey optimization, and content modeling.
