Hi, my name is Nicole Arcieri, but you're more than welcome to call me Nikki.  I'm currently living in Breckenridge, Colorado as I manage to persist as one of the most hard working and responsible ski bums you'll meet.  Beyond illustration and design, I enjoy skiing, running, napping, getting up early, relentlessly cleaning my stove, listening to NPR and drinking the occasional gin and tonic.  Thank you for visiting my site.
