Hello,
I’m Nicky.

I’m a Brand & Marketing Strategist with a passion for building brands that resonate.

My work lives at the intersection of strategy and visual communication—where creativity, storytelling, and commercial thinking meet.

With a background in food & beverage strategy, digital marketing, graphic design, and photography, I help brands across the hospitality, wellness, and lifestyle industries create deeper connections with their audiences and drive meaningful growth.

Born and raised in Southern California, I was immersed in the world of design from an early age. With a mother who was an interior designer and a father who was an architect, creativity was a cornerstone of my upbringing—sparking a lifelong passion for aesthetics, art, and design. This creative foundation, combined with my studies in Business Entrepreneurship & Innovation, continues to shape how I approach brand-building today.

Now based in Byron Bay, Australia, I work with clients locally and globally to create, evolve, and grow impactful brands.
