It is with immense sadness that we must share with you the news of the loss of our friend, our leader, and our mentor, Kris Nóva.
It was Nóva who inspired us to come together to build Hachyderm, whose vision created Nivenly, and whose mission we continue to carry forward. In her working life beyond Nivenly, she has left behind a legacy of professionalism and strength of vision, and we all miss her terribly.
This is very fresh and raw for us in the Nivenly community right now, so we ask for patience while we figure out how we move forward. But move forward we will, as we know that is what Nóva would want.
OC has said that she died in a climbing accident, which makes this more of a PSA than anything else, but sudden happiness (even/especially if it seems geniune) after a long period of depression can be an indicator of suicidality. Generally it’s because they’ve decided to go through with it, so they feel at peace.
That said, being from an accident doesn’t make her death any less tragic. I hope her loved ones are making it through okay.
