KIMBERLY NAGY

A warm welcome to you. I am a professional writer who has written for Scientific AmericanNew York Daily NewsYour Teen for Parents and Ravishly among other publications. Thank you for reading about my work. 

 

“I’ve hired Kim on many occasions to write for my site webvet.com. I find her to be incredibly thoughtful, creative and detail oriented, all of which are important when you differentiate your brand on your content. I can honestly say, she has been one of my favorite writers to work with! I would highly recommend Kim and will continue to work with her in the future!” – Hope Schultz, President and Editor in Chief, WebVet

“Kimberly’s writing is like a breeze filled with ancient fragrances – like incense in Carl Jung’s study. Yet, her work also strikes me as an emerging kind of feminism – rooted in primordial wisdom and myth not trapped in a modern battle with frenzied materialism – though Kimberly is clearly armed and dangerous.”
– Michael Carroll, author of Awake at Work, The Mindful Leader and Fearless at Work

My writing ranges from parenting (including my personal essay on how to talk to kids about sexual assault and consent) to women in science. I am particularly interested in the untold stories and perspectives of women in history and mythology. I’ve been passionate about discovering unknown women in history since I was eight years old. I’ve interviewed many modern women about their creative lives including bestselling novelist, Edwidge Danticat, founder of the Webbys Tiffany Shlain, former U.S. poet laureate Tracy K. Smith,  and Academy-Award Winning, Pamela Tanner Boll (producer of Who Does She Think She Is?) and others. The more I talked with contemporary women as well as researched historical figures, the more I wanted to rewrite ancient stories that punished rather than celebrated women’s voices and ambition.

My day job is currently devoted to working for a college–crafting strategic website content, conducting interviews with incredibly smart students and telling impactful stories about remarkable faculty and trailblazing research. In the field of higher ed, I have worked in virtually every aspect of marketing, publicity, and communications including work on press campaigns, web content, viewbooks, radio and TV ads, emails, and brochures as well as editing full-length academic manuscripts.
