As a homepage editor, I’ve managed entire global news websites and mobile applications that saw millions of visitors.
The homepage is still important today: It deserves editorial precision and decision-making that serves audiences both the essential stories of the moment and articles that are trending—responsibilities I’ve handled with ease.
At Middle East-based newspaper, The National, I updated up to six different regional editions multiple times a day with the latest reporting our reporters published.
As a news curator at Quartz, I worked with a small team to editorially select and creatively present the latest news around the global economy on our homepages and app, while highlighting our publication’s journalism.
I’m experienced in seamlessly coordinating digital content distribution on several platforms—social media, live video streams, push notifications, and newsletters—to hundreds of thousands of subscribers.
I’m very comfortable in confidently multitasking several responsibilities in a workday to disseminate strong copy and content to wide audiences on different platforms.
At The National, my work entailed managing live blogs, push notifications, multimedia production, photo galleries, and article publishing. I also oversaw social media copy-editing, SEO optimization, and improvement of headlines.
Over at Quartz, I spent time strategically probing dozens of push notifications and analyzing what was successful in our practices. The analysis in part helped Quartz reach industry-high open rates.
We also organized our online community on the Quartz mobile app by interests, and we sent targeted topical pushes to correlating interests as an effort to drive conversations by smart and relevant experts.

I’m skilled in handling content management systems, organizing digital output, and coordinating editorial partnerships.
While as a digital producer at USA Today, I worked with the leadership at the College vertical on organizing the content management system—the nuts and bolts of publishing operations. As part of a site redesign, I was involved in detailed and extensive tasks to sort, reformat, and update existing and new content.
As part of helping with workflow and digital production, I pitched in on social media and publishing efforts, which included republishing and outreach for guest features.
Prior to USA Today, I worked closely with the editor-in-chief of a startup called Kicker, a news website aimed at serving news for young audiences. I pitched in on social media work and organizing CMS systems.
I had an active role in multiple partnerships for Kicker, which entailed coordinating the republishing of our articles on external publications to further outreach.

I was part of the initial team launching the first season of a national live daytime television production.
In 2017, I joined the digital side of a new TEGNA team months before the official fall launch of a daytime talk show that eventually aired in 30+ US markets. The show also aired online on streaming platforms with live interaction between the show hosts and audiences during the TV commercial breaks, creating a 360-degree experience.
Hired as a social media manager, I solely managed the Twitter account (along with its Periscope account) and built the show into a national brand presence on the platform, garnering millions of viewers and several shares by well-known people.
Through the 4.5 hours of live television the show aired each day, I simultaneously juggled social media posting, managing live video streaming on YouTube, Facebook, and Twitter, overseeing community engagement, coordinating host-to-audience interactions, and flagging executive producers on relevant and verified breaking news updates. I eventually moved into the control room to handle all those tasks through the live shows.
