Hiya

I’m a writer, creator, and proud mama to Julieta (just started U of York) so new beginnings for both of us.

My beat is what I’m passionate about: culture, tech, politics and people. I’m fascinated by the shift towards indie media, in service of culture, mobile offices and portfolio careers (trying to make peace with my own!)

Building the Shift: a lively digital weekly for media makers.
Get new writing, bold ideas, useful links—and small biz, big life energy, direct to your inbox.

Outside the Shift, I run Firebird, a one-woman content studio.

Connecting brands with people and culture. This way, reader → https://nikatalbot.io/work-with-me/

For Writers & Creators
• If you need a hand with your newsletter or blog, I've launched ???? Pocket Editor—your writing wingwoman for one week on Voxer.

A fresh pair of eyes, quick feedback, and a mentor in your pocket. PE for short but more fun haha x

For Brands & Companies
• I can help with content strategy & writing (event liveblogs, opinion pieces, interviews, case studies, podcast scripts)
• Research, editing & fact-checking

Other ways we can work together:

Brand Partnerships
• I’m open to long-term brand partnerships for my letter & LinkedIn, so we can meet your goals and grow together.

Gold star for reading this far.
