About

I started in journalism and spent more than 15 years working across media and publishing, earning multiple Emmy Awards and a Pulitzer Prize along the way. That background gave me a deep understanding of how newsrooms operate, what editorial teams need, and where technology either gets in the way or makes everything better.

Today I work at the intersection of media and technology as an Account Executive at WordPress VIP, the enterprise CMS platform built for the world’s largest publishers. I help media companies find the tools, platforms, and workflows that let journalists and editors do their best work, faster and at scale.

My background spans SaaS platforms, video production, content management systems, and real-time analytics. I’ve spent my career making publishers more efficient, first as a journalist and now as someone who sells the infrastructure that powers modern media.
