Nisha Lykke Sethi

External consultant and copywriter

She's been called a walking style guide – always ready to explain a hyphen, comma or verb tense.

But grammar isn't Nisha's only strong point. Applying her background in politics, art and teaching to communications, she sees business writing as a balance between creativity, the clients’ visions, the audience’s expectations and the potential of the media.

After earning her BA in Political Science and Art History from Berkeley and her MA in History from Columbia University, Nisha spent many years teaching social studies, philosophy and English in New York. She worked on educational websites and newsletters before moving into communications. She’s since worked with companies from fashion to pharmaceuticals – on everything from ads to annual reports. She is also the co-founder of WordSpin.

Growing up in California with parents from India and Denmark, Nisha has always looked at the world and her work with a unique international perspective, and believes that communication is the way to bridge boundaries.
