Nicole Sallak Anderson is Computer Science graduate from Purdue University, and former CTO for a small Silicon Valley startup, turned novelist, speaker, and blogger, focusing on the intersection of technology and consciousness. Her essays range from AI and Zen to direct democracy to the loneliness of modern parenting— featured as a top twenty story on Medium. In addition, her work on Universal Basic Income has been included on 2020 presidential candidate, Andrew Yang’s, website.

She is the author of Origins, Blood and Chaos, and Civilization's End--a trilogy about Egypt's last native pharaoh and his quest to take back his empire from the Ptolemys, and most recently, It Takes Two, a contemporary romance with a reincarnation twist.
