About NKPR

Founded by Natasha Koifman in 2002, NKPR is a full-service communications agency that lives at the intersection of PR, marketing, digital, and talent representation.

Complete with cozy couches for collaboration, open creative spaces, and a rooftop patio that comes alive in the summer months. Its a space designed for ideas to flow and for people to genuinely enjoy coming to work. We focus on supporting one another as a collaborative team vs a competitive one, with shared objectives.

Life at NKPR is fast-paced, social, and full of energy. We celebrate our wins, host unforgettable events and media previews, and love finding reasons to come together - whether for a brainstorm, a rooftop hangout, or a Thirsty Thursday. Its a place where creativity thrives, relationships matter, and good vibes fuel great work.
