our platform on Snapchat Discover.

Our small team curates and produces NYTimes a special edition for viewers 18-24, a reader demographic the Times previously did not have. I’ve helped grow our subscriber base to over a million followers. I’ve developed a visual language that captures the traditional Times style and blends it with contemporary and fun new voice.

My responsibilities include producing content, working with designers and illustrators, conceptualizing story ideas, collaborating with writers and different desks in the newsroom.

We even won a prestigious award from the Society of News Design. First place in mobile storytelling!
