About
Hi, I’m Nicci.
I live in Galveston, a barrier island off the coast of Texas in the Gulf of Mexico.
For over a decade, I worked with nonprofits on the island, helping with budgets, grant-writing, and program development. Before moving to the island, I worked at the University of Illinois in their Biology teaching labs for 10 years.
I hold bachelor’s degrees in Biology and English and a master’s degree in Foresight from the University of Houston, where I’m now the Research Director of the graduate program in Foresight.


I have twin daughters, one at the University of Illinois Grainger College of Engineering and the other at Bryn Mawr College.
I’m passionate about justice and equity, and I’m an avid reader. My other hobbies include going to book talks, making book lists, and participating in book challenges.
I’m in the nascent stages of writing a book about prosocial futures.
I’m a latecomer to running, but I try to run 3–4 half marathons each year.
