The creative direction of Nikki Magers.
Hey! I’m Nikki Magers (and that’s Magers like “pagers”)
As a kid, I realized that "image" was right smack in the middle of my name. Coincidence or not, creativity became my thing, and I've been creating "images," ever since I can remember.
I'm a creative leader who loves to learn. I strive to be what I like to call an "everythinger” 'cause I think it's important to be able to do a little bit of everything.
I’m also an alum of the Syracuse University Advertising & Communications Design Program. At 'Cuse, I got the best of both worlds with the Creative Track in Advertising from the S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications and the Advertising Design Program at the College of Visual and Performing Arts.
In my spare time, I volunteer as a foster pawrent & brand ambassador for See Spot Rescued, a non-profit dog rescue organization based in Jersey City & NYC. I’m also the social media & digital content manager for the East Coast Gassers drag racing association.
In my spare-spare time, I enjoy cruising in my '66 Chevelle, drag racing with my family, climbing things, and parallel parking. I have way too many plants, penguins are the best, and I’ve got a perfectly normal obsession with English Bulldogs thanks to my OG girl, Kenzie.

"The phrase 'Wise beyond her years' is common, but the embodiment may not be...until you work with Nikki. Her creative ability, impeccable work ethic, and strength of character make her not only an outstanding professional, but an outstanding person. Two launches in two years, never-ending pitches and countless late nights...there's a reason why she's done it all, because we know she can."

"As a partner with Power Pilates and a “customer” of Apogee Media I would like to take a moment to talk about my experience with the Apogee Media Team and the Power Pilates family...
I would like to give a very special thanks to Nikki. Nikki has been a creative tour de force. She seems to have an uncanny ability to take vague conceptual ramblings, and in turn, render a well-thought-out product image. The quality of her work is unparalleled, and she gets it right the first time! She is always ready with pertinent advice and we have learned to trust her implicitly. We understand she is very busy in her position, but Nikki has never made us feel anything other than esteemed and important. In short, the value of her work and her person is unquestionable."

"Nikki Magers was employed at the Syracuse University Office of Alumni Relations for 2 years. During her tenure, Nikki worked on a variety of projects—lending her graphic expertise and creative design to everything from posters to t-shirts to postcards and beyond. While juggling a full course load, Nikki always met her deadlines and never let any project go unattended. She was easy to work with and all the staff in the office enjoyed working with her. We miss her terribly and wish she'd come back to SU for grad school so we could have her back in the office."
Ellen King | Executive Director, Alumni Relations of Syracuse University
