about

I'm an experienced editor and leader known for guiding teams through transition with empathy, clarity, and a steady hand. With more than 20 years in media, I bring a quiet but effective leadership style rooted in high emotional intelligence—I prioritize listening to build consensus, but I’m also confident in making thoughtful, strategic decisions when needed. Whether managing a newsroom, evolving a brand’s voice, or navigating organizational change, I create an environment where creativity thrives and teams feel supported. My background in both print and digital storytelling gives me a sharp editorial eye and a strong grasp of audience engagement, including SEO best practices and platform-specific strategy. At the heart of my work is a commitment to powerful storytelling that resonates, informs, and inspires.
