NIKIPEDIA
James Nikitine
Hi! Before you move on, I would like to answer a question that probably just came to mind.
Is your last name pronounced just like nicotine?
The short answer: yes.
If you want the long answer, then I've provided a little help down below:
Nikitine (Nikitin)
/ˈnɪkɪtiːn/
Nikitin (Russian: Никитин), or Nikitina (feminine; Никитина) is a common Russian surname that derives from the male given name Nikita and literally means Nikita's.
I'm currently at the University of California, San Diego majoring in Cognitive Science with a specialization in Design and Interaction.
I'll be graduating in June 2026 and I am actively looking for roles.
Please feel free to reach out to me either through email or LinkedIn.
