Nick Abraham

Nick Abraham, Sightline fellow, was born in the Midwest but is an adopted son of the Pacific Northwest. He has a disconcerting love for digging through public records, financial data, and energy stats and pulling out relatable stories. Nick graduated from Western Washington University with a dual degree in Economics and Environmental Studies and will always have a Bellingham-sized hole in his heart for the northern Washington town. He is now the editor and lead contributor of Oil Check Northwest, a watchdog group focused on oil and coal’s influence in the region. If he isn’t in the back of a Seattle or Portland coffee shop digging through oily donation records, you'll find him in search of his lifelong mission, finding the world’s best gumbo.
