Nicole Newman
Technologist + Writer
By day, I combine strategy with emerging technology. My work lies at the heart of human ingenuity and innovation. By night, I am a devourer of true crime and all things pop culture. But when I have time to write, usually in the wee hours of morning, I love to transform my imagination into words on a page.
