Associate Editor
Phoenix, Arizona, United States
Manage the day-to-day editorial workflow of their assigned beats, regions, and other areas of specialization as directed by the Managing Editor. Assisted in the writing and editing of original and aggregated news stories, news round-ups, explainers, social media posts, and a daily newsletter, all while being mindful of editorial standards and targeted audiences. I also worked with other state editors, national editors, and social editors to share, flip, or localize stories that are high performing elsewhere and show potential to have cross-state appeal in partner markets. Together, we identifed traffic trends, breaking news, and sourcing strategies to inform aggregated stories and franchises. Working closely with reporters, I helped identify such content.When time allowed, I took on longer-lead projects such as features, work on strategy, and do multi-platform and multimedia work as needed.
