About Seng

About the blog

Hi, I’m Seng.

My name is Seng — it’s pronounced “sang” — and I’ve been writing Sengerson since 2009. I’m a working mom of four, married to my college sweetheart, living in a typical suburban home we’ve slowly made ours one project at a time.

This site is where I document what actually works for our family: affordable home projects you can finish in a weekend and honest notes on running a household while working full-time in tech.

Not sure where to start? Take the tour of our home, browse what’s in it, or jump to the reader favorites below.

Right now we’re in the middle of a kitchen refresh (backsplash, cabinetry, and countertops), a powder room update, and a primary bathroom and closet remodel — each project lands on the blog as it finishes.

The longer story

Career, kids, and a camera

Seng Nickerson working on the blog at home

By trade I’m a degreed marketer, and I’ve spent my whole career in corporate America — pharmaceutical sales, consulting on medical record implementations, launching enterprise chatbots, and now automated marketing and advertising in big tech. I’ve been the new hire, the mentor, and the manager, so I know exactly what balancing a career with a full house takes.

Sengerson has been my side project through all of it. It started in 2009 as the creative outlet for my family photography business and grew into the home and family blog it is today. The working-parent trade-offs are real, and I share them here honestly — the wins and the messes — so you feel less alone in yours.

Brand Collaborations

Since 2009, I’ve partnered with and been featured by Pottery Barn, Home Depot, Lowes, Target, TJ Maxx, Abercrombie & Fitch, StitchFix, Kidz Bop, Booking.com, and Cedar Fair, and I’ve been featured in Kansas City Wedding Magazine.
