NIKKI NJOKI
I've been a transcriber for 7 years. I have been trained in both general and legal transcription. I am also an article writer, and have focused on the world of online jobs as a niche. Most people don't know this about me, but I studied food as a profession. I am a trained chef and in another life, I would be running a vegan bakery.
When I'm not staring at my screen, I spend all the time I can with my family. We love to go on adventures. My daughter is only 4, so I make sure to maximize the time we spend together, doing things she loves, or exploring the world through her eyes.
I love health and wellness and have been on a journey to change mine and my family's lifestyle for the better. I love art, history, museums, dance, and almost all kinds of music. But hip hop has my heart. Not that mumble jumble stuff you hear nowadays - the oldies. You can find me in the kitchen, learning new recipes or perfecting old ones. On most days I'll be on the sofa, curling up with a good book and some chai. Or bingeing the latest TV show. I'm an introvert, can you tell?

Krys Copeland
Krys has been a writer since she was eight years old and wrote a play about a girl who lost her cat in the woods. Since then, Krys has expanded her genres, writing and ghostwriting on such topics as gaming, transcription, education, crafts, spirituality, and biographies/autobiographies. Her favorite thing about working with a client is watching their excitement build as the pieces of their book start coming together.
Krys has been a writing coach both for children and adults and particularly loves working on children’s books and stories, as well as educational material for children. She even made a board game once!
Krys began life in Dallas, Texas, but now travels the world and keeps a home base in Nijmegen, the Netherlands. She also teaches English to students around the world and provides business coaching and consulting to Rhiannon Farms, a social entrepreneurship she began with Maureen and a few friends in America and Kenya.
When she’s not writing or traveling, Krys is often gaming with friends or enjoying a good Belgian specialty beer on a terrace somewhere in Holland. 🍺
