Interview

What was your first job as a journalist?

Writing product descriptions for a homegrown beauty brand in 2011.

How is social media changing news?

It's moving faster by the second — and that only makes the responsibility to get it right even greater.

How do you prefer to be pitched on stories?

Email is my preferred first point of contact. A clear subject line, a one-paragraph pitch, and any supporting materials upfront save us both time. I'm always interested in celebrity news, pop culture, Exclusive tips/photos, and more.

Why did you become a journalist?

To tell the stories that matter, to the people who need to hear them, before anyone else does.

When you're not at a computer, where are you most likely to be?

Planning the next vacation.
