Hi, I’m Nici.
My pronouns are they/them.
I am a freelance UX Designer, Researcher, and Queer Educator with a decade of experience in digital and queer education.
I specialize in facilitating workshops on sexual identity, sexual health, and various DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) topics, and I integrate this knowledge into my work as a consultant, designer, and researcher.
As an expert in qualitative research and teaching, I focus on analyzing systems, patterns, and human needs. My work spans UX Design, Research, and DEI Consultancy, where I bring a queer perspective to make products more inclusive and accessible. I am also a published academic author and dedicated queer educator.
Having transitioned from theory to practice, I leverage my analytical and critical thinking skills to conduct meaningful research that promotes gender equality and inclusivity in design. As a first-generation student with a migration background, I am deeply committed to creating equitable and accessible experiences for all.
