My name is Niko _____ (pronounced KNEE-koh BLANK), also known as Inumo, Navid Kolinoi, and [legal name].

By day I’m a developmental biologist, but in my free time I’m a musician, a game designer, and — according to this project’s existence — an artist. I’ve been reading tarot for over a decade, during which time I’ve discovered I’m an asexual, aromantic, agender trans nonbinary person.

In recent memory I’ve helped write a review of equitable admissions practices for graduate school, released an EP of angry queer folk punk music under the name Estranged In Public, written a few small-scale TTRPGs, and taken on moderation duties for a community fiction project with over a thousand contributors.
