What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters creativity and collaboration, where I can lead editorial initiatives and drive impactful content strategies.

I am an accomplished editorial professional with over 15 years of experience in content strategy, team leadership, and publication management. My career has been dedicated to aligning editorial vision with business goals, fostering collaboration, and delivering content that resonates with audiences. I am passionate about helping teams grow and creating thoughtful, effective content every step of the way.

In my most recent role as Managing Editor at Green Market Report, I successfully maintained the publication's website, coordinated with other titles to enhance content sharing, and developed new products that significantly increased audience engagement. My efforts led to significant audience growth in just two years, showcasing my ability to analyze metrics and refine content strategies effectively.

Throughout my career, I have overseen various editorial projects, including the production of the annual Marijuana Business Factbook and a weekly podcast. My strong attention to detail and proficiency with tools like Adobe Creative Suite and WordPress have been instrumental in my success. I thrive in both independent and collaborative environments, always aiming to elevate the quality and consistency of published materials.
