About Me

Portrait

Hi, I’m Kyle Niko…

Ever since I was little, I imagined a world where my drawings would come to life. I was always known to have a creative and artistic skillset, especially in drawing and design. That’s a passion that I’ve carried throughout my life and it continues to help drive my career. My 5-year-old self would be proud of where I am today.

I graduated from UC Berkeley in 2015 with a Bachelor of Arts in Architecture and have gained 7+ years of work experience in the industry. Professionally, I’ve worked on a wide variety of projects including: sports facilities, restaurants, market halls, retail, offices, residential, and homeless shelters. I currently work for the city of San Francisco, doing what I love – drawing and design.

Although design is a big part of my life, it doesn’t define who I am – I also love sports, food, music festivals, sneakers, hiking, and much more. I grew up playing organized basketball and football, and I’m a die hard 9ers/Dubs fan. I have an adventurous spirit for trying new things, especially with food and travel. My collection of Air Jordans, SB Dunks, and Ultra Boosts flood my closet space, and I have to keep reminding myself that I don’t need more. My motto in life is simple – enjoy it.
