About Nikki
Personal Background
While I was born and primarily raised in Southern Idaho, I spent a few years in Lewiston during my junior high and high school days and returned to the LC Valley in 2018 when I accepted a teaching position. In my free time, I love an adventure and enjoy hiking, camping, skiing, snowshoeing, and kayaking. I also have three adult children who I enjoy spending time with, as much as possible.
Professional Background
In addition to my educational background, I have worked in industry in various positions including web design specialist, e-commerce and content developer, web director and developer, and graphic designer.
Teaching Style
I favor a team atmosphere and believe that we all have something to offer each other and the program through rich interactions and the mutual sharing of knowledge. Critical thinking and problem solving are crucial skills necessary to be successful in the web design and development field, (along with many other industries) so I am will always happy to help guide a student toward finding a solution when they are an active participant in researching the problem. I am a firm believer that you will get as much out of any program as the effort you put in, and will do my very best to facilitate a positive learning experience.
I am thrilled to be a part of the Web Design and Development program at LC State and look forward to working with my students every semester!
