Managing Editor

The Seattle Times serves the Northwest with thoughtful, independent, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalism, as the region's most trusted news media company. The Seattle Times newspaper is the second largest newspaper on the West Coast. Seattle Times and The Times digital products are the most visited digital information sources in the state. Founded in 1896 by Alden J. Blethen and now led by the Blethen family's fourth and fifth generations, The Seattle Times is a multimedia news and information company which also owns the Walla Walla Union-Bulletin, the Yakima Herald-Republic, the Issaquah Press, the Newcastle News, the Sammamish Review and the SnoValley Star, and their websites.

I'm a jill of all trades who developed a massive midlife crush on journalism, a profession that now feeds my curiosity, my soul and -- miraculously -- my family. I'm currently The Seattle Times managing editor, directing coverage, upholding standards and hiring, training and developing newsroom staff. Specialties: Fixing messes, finding better alternatives, building audiences, getting stuff done, stealth diplomacy and way-clearing for creative types.
