Hi there, I'm Nikita. I love telling visual stories about molecules.

I am a computational chemist working across the full stack of AI for chemistry and materials science.

Today I'm a Senior Technical Marketing Engineer at NVIDIA, where I design and lead demos, benchmarks, technical tutorials and visuals for AI-accelerated simulation.

Before that, I spent five years at LANL developing ML models for chemistry and GPU-enabled semiempirical methods.

Outside of work, I'm an explorer and a foodie at heart, and I'm drawn to good design in every form: architecture, a well-made gadget, a good 3D render or a beautifully crafted video game.

My favorite time off is with Byron, my dog, and he's around here somewhere
