Nico is obsessed with the power of storytelling—whether through a perfectly crafted PR campaign or a dramatic retelling of a minor life event. With a background in political advocacy and digital communications, she’s helped shape messages that mobilize communities and make an impact. She believes good storytelling should be bold, authentic, and leave a lasting impression. When she’s not crafting narratives, she’s probably hosting a dinner party or sampling every oat milk cortado in D.C.
