Niki Torres

Niki Torres is the producer and host of Chief Best Friends podcast, an interview podcast on mixing friendship with business and the delightful, messy in-betweens. Chief Best Friends was born out of the desire to hear more women’s voices in a growing medium like podcasting. We want to be the first few to create a quality podcast from Asia that’s globally recognised.

We are curious of all the women movers, shakers, and creators from all corners of the globe whose voices we may not have heard yet. We truly believe podcasting is changing the game for our stories to be told—not by anyone but by us.
