I am in charge of content for Sleep Review. This includes all features, guides, and Q&As published in the print magazine, as well as webinars, podcasts, feature reports, surveys, and other media we produce. I conceive and assign articles to in-house writers and freelancers. I optimize articles for search engines, which facilitates the appearance of Sleep Review articles in places like Google Discover and Google News. Sleep Review's breaking news alert service, which I developed, has been a top performing e-newsletter since its launch in 2022.

I managed the editors of all the brands of Sleep Review's parent company, MEDQOR, in this role. I am proud of the hires I made and the training I facilitated. I also was happy to contribute to overall company strategic planning and be the liaison for the editors to upper management. When I became a mom to two kids under 3-year-old, I requested to step back from this role, and MEDQOR graciously let me do so and focus exclusively on Sleep Review.
