Nekocon Featured Panelist

Koi (HistoriKoi) has been a familiar face in the convention scene for 20 years, bringing panels that mix fun, nostalgia, and just the right dash of history. Her name is easy to remember if you think of a koi fish, and her programming is just as memorable. She has presented at events like Nekocon, ROFCon, Anime Mid-Atlantic, and AnimeUSA, covering everything from con etiquette to the surprising history behind popular games and shows.

 

By day, Koi works in the museum field and has served as a visiting lecturer at historic sites. By con weekend, she is all about creating programming that makes attendees laugh, reminisce, and maybe even learn something new along the way. Whether it is diving into anime’s golden years or breaking down history with a pop culture twist, Koi’s goal is simple: panels that are equal parts fun and unforgettable.
