She is a Digital Communications Officer at UNO's Queer and Trans Services, which is a student agency dedicated to supporting UNO students on the LGBTQIA+ spectrum. Here, she organized the office's busy calendar and manages social media outreach. In addition to working for QTS, Nico also works as an intern for Campus Compact for the Great Pains, where she advances the organization's mission to strengthen civic education on college campuses through community outreach.

During her time as a University Innovation Fellow, Nico worked with her partner Parker Jensen to create an elective course called "Design Flaw!"

Nico was trained as a University Innovation Fellow in the fall of 2018. She attended the Silicon Valley Meetup in March of 2019. This fall will be her first time as a uiguide, and she couldn't be more excited to once again work with the amazing other fellows at institutions across the globe!
