About Niki Mock

Niki started her career in communications as an on-air broadcast news reporter in 1984, but became a producer specializing in non-profit organizations after many years at home with 3 children. She joined with Liz Norton at Stone Soup Films in 2008, working there for nine years before starting her own freelance business continuing to make short films for  local non-profit organizations. In all, she has made over 30 videos, including for The JCC Rockville,  Reach, Inc., Sasha Bruce, The Mid-Atlantic Innocence Project, Breast Care D.C., and the Black Student Fund. Her videos and communication consultations have led to serious increases in those non-profits' fundraising ability, as well as educational outreach goals.
