Nicole’s first career was in sex and relationship research, specializing in consensual non-monogamy. She was fortunate to work with industry experts like John Gottman and Justin Lehmiller. She decided to forgo academic endeavors in favor of the pen. As a writer, she works to bridge the gap between academia and the masses by making science easier to enjoy. She updates you with the latest sex research, so you can be “in the know” at all times.
