Experience
- Apr 2012 - PresentEditorial Operations Manager, Yahoo! Entertainment / Yahoo!
- Dec 2009 - PresentEditor/Producer, Yahoo! TV / Yahoo!As part of Yahoo! TV's small but dedicated team, I dreamed up, built, and edited features, promos, photo galleries, and blog posts. I was especially involved in reworking our existing tools to better promote our content partners' news stories and experimenting with creative ways to integrate social networking. When I wasn't busy updating the site, you could often find me interviewing one of my favorite TV stars.
- May 2009 - PresentContent Producer, omg! / Yahoo!I helped Yahoo!'s celebrity gossip site maintain its category-leading position by keeping its front page updated with the freshest news stories, blog posts, photos, and videos. I also built and edited a popular weekly photo gallery recapping the biggest pop-culture events, and I was responsible for pitching stories from all of Yahoo!'s core entertainment properties to the site's front page editors.
- Sept 2008 - PresentMultimedia Producer, Yahoo! News / Yahoo!I made sure that the day's top stories had the latest and most appropriate video and photo assets attached. I built photo galleries, assembled hubs for key news topics, activated live video streams and kept editors informed of the best video clips submitted by our providers. I also acted as a liaison with those providers, troubleshooting video problems and requesting specific clips on behalf of our editors.
- Feb 2008 - PresentSenior Producer, MTV News Online / MTV NetworksAs the senior member of MTV News' West Coast production team, I built daily news articles, features and blog posts; edited story art, photo galleries and videos; and published content to MTV.com and related sites (VH1.com, mtvU.com, MTV2.com) and MTV News' family of blogs (Newsroom, MTV Movies Blog, You R Here).
- May 2006 - PresentProducer, MTV News Online / MTV NetworksAs a member of MTV News' West Coast production team, I built daily news articles, features and blog posts; edited story art, photo galleries and videos; and published content to MTV.com and related sites (VH1.com, mtvU.com, MTV2.com) and MTV News' family of blogs (Newsroom, MTV Movies Blog, You R Here).
- Nov 2000 - PresentEditor, MTV News Online / MTV NetworksAs an editor I was responsible for fact checking, line editing and copy editing news stories and features. I wrote eye-catching headlines and promotional copy on a daily basis, along with the occasional band profile, live review or feature presentation. As the site's copy chief, I decided matters of style and maintained the internal stylebook.
- Mar 2001 - PresentCopy Editor and Writer / Devil in the WoodsDevil in the Woods (a.k.a. DIW) was a nationally distributed, quarterly published indie-rock magazine.
- Apr 1999 - PresentCopy Editor and Rock/Pop Editor / SonicNet.comI edited news, reviews and features for SonicNet.com's daily news page as well as the monthly online magazine Addicted to Noise. In my final two months as copy editor I was promoted to senior copy editor. When SonicNet.com split into separate genres, I was promoted to editor of the rock and pop sections, deciding the daily lineups; generating and assigning stories; editing all written content; and working with producers to ensure that each piece was rich with audio and visual media. I also wrote album reviews and contributed to the site's award-winning investigation into the Woodstock '99 riots.
- Dec 1995 - PresentCopy Editor, Paginator, Reporter, Music Columnist, Community News Editor / North County TimesOver the course of several years at this daily paper serving northern San Diego County I was able to put a variety of skills to use, laying out pages, editing copy, taking photos, writing stories and even penning a biweekly column about the San Diego music scene.
