I'm nicoco! I am an American visuals journalist in China. I believe in the power of visual arts as a mechanism for storytelling and social change. I am the founder of CELEBRATE WOMEN, an annual women's empowerment photography series, and was the creative lead of 2021 Shanghai Run Proud, a run series to promote awareness and fundraise for the LGBTQ+ community.
I was born in Chicago and grew up in the suburbs before moving to Shanghai. I have temporarily lived in three other great cities: Beijing, Florence, and New York City.
