Hi, I’m Nicole.
I’m a Canadian writer, editor, and fact-checker based in Berlin.
I’ve spent a decade working at publications both big and small and am happiest when I’m deep in a draft, bringing a story to life.
I write about health, culture and society. You can find my work in The Walrus, Glamour, WebMD, Broadview, Maclean’s, Reader‘s Digest, Yahoo and VICE.

At Work
Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to take on various editorial roles at local and national magazines.
I started my career as a fact-checker, which helped me become a Google wizard, pub quiz master and research enthusiast.
Today, I spend most of my time editing. I was an associate editor at The Walrus between 2021 and 2023, where I worked closely with writers to develop their ideas into feature-length stories for our website and print issues. I also edited our “Ask An Expert” series, which I co-created in 2021.
Throughout my time at The Walrus, I helped edit and launch three new web series: The Longest Winter, Hope You’re Well and Teen Walrus. My writing and editing has been nominated for Digital Publishing Awards.
In 2022, I worked at Informed, a Berlin-based startup creating the next go-to app for journalism.
I’m currently the features and perspective editor at Broadview, where I help make print magic happen every other month. I also write their weekly newsletter, which was nominated for a Canadian Digital Publishing Award in 2025.

In Life
When I’m not working, I’m usually travelling. I’ve visited 33 countries (and counting) and lived on three continents.
I love fiction, food, burlesque and hiking. In my next life, I’d like to be a florist.
