Hi, I'm Nikiya Crisostomo.

Professional Engineer (P.E.)

Stanford Engineering (B.S. + M.S)
Trusted by AWS, OpenSpace,

and beyond

I bring over a decade of experience in engineering, technology, education, and the arts, creating scalable systems that drive operational excellence, empower communities, and foster human-centered growth. I help organizations of all sizes, from global companies to grassroots nonprofits; my client portfolio includes leaders like Amazon Web Services (AWS), OpenSpace, Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART), and multiple mission-based organizations and start-ups, reflecting my ability to deliver results that matter with integrity and impact.

Rooted in technical precision, cultural understanding, and a steadfast commitment to practical solutions that work for everyone, my work transforms complexity into clarity and vision into action. I believe innovation should serve humanity by engineering systems that last and empower those who’ve been overlooked.

For leaders ready to scale with purpose, I offer not just strategy, but proven systems that work.
