About Nikki

Atlantic Canada’s very own chaotic disaster

Hi everyone, I am Nikki, but you can call me Niks. I am from Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, and I was born in Iran, raised in Mexico City. I have spoken 3 fluent languages since age 7 and I have set machines ablaze since 9. My dream is to become a Tech Artist.

My forte is game development, graphics and shaders (trying to learn Vulkan… 3000 lines for one triangle……), and console jailbreaking and hacking. I am on the 3DS, WiiU, PS3 and Switch Scene. My favourite videogames are Shin Megami Tensei IV: Apocalypse, Sonic CD and The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword. I love cartoons and anime, technical artistry, RGB LED lights and being a chaotic gremlin.

I also have a cat named Navarre, and he is my precious $45 dollar baby and named after my favourite SMT character.

I have done work for Other Ocean Interactive, silverorange, IAOIP. I am a Microsoft Windows Insider and a Google Education Volunteer. I am a member of Jack.org and Venture for Canada. I also lead UPEI’s Computer Science and Math Society.
