I am a media executive who drives revenue through editorial strategies that grow audiences by connecting them to content, products, and experiences that help them live their best lives. I believe the future of news lies in building meaningful consumer habits, and, ultimately, community.
I have previously worked as the transformation chief at Gannett, the editorial director at FORTUNE, the managing editor at VICE, a strategist at the Wall Street Journal, and at Fusion, the Sun Sentinel, the Los Angeles Times, and the Huntsville Times.
I frequently speak and write on the state of journalism, leadership, and newsroom culture. I have a weekly newsletter. I was a member of the 2023 Online News Association Executive Women Leaders Salon and 2016 ONA-Poynter Leadership Academy for Women in Digital Media class.
I block out time on Fridays to mentor women and people of color in journalism.
I read a lot of books.
