nikk i Wood, Principal and Editorial director

J im Wood, Principal and Executive Editor

From 1991 to 2000, Jim and nikki Wood developed Coast Magazine in

newport Beach, California. they sold the magazine to the orange County

register in 2000 and in 2002 moved to Marin County. after falling in love with

all Marin has to offer, the Woods noted the opportunity of creating a local

publication similar to Coast and in early 2004 the decision was made to

launch Marin Magazine.

For over 20 years, Jim Wood has written articles and op-ed pieces for such

orange County publications as the orange Coast daily Pilot, Metropolitan

Journal and oC Metro. in 1991, he became a constant and much-read voice

in Coast Magazine. His articles on local issues travel and special interest

stories attracted a wide and intense following. at Coast, Jim served as editor,

publisher and columnist.

at Coast Magazine, nikki held the position of publisher and general business

manager. Her duties with Marin Magazine are as general manager and

editorial director; overseeing the layout, design and editorial tone of the

magazine. “What can be better than doing what you love in a place you

love,” exclaims nikki in describing her excitement at starting this new venture.
