I'm a 28-year media executive who is fairly versed in Executive leadership, revenue development, and design for print and digital media. I served for 6 years in a variety of roles for North Jersey Media Group, and 17.5 years as Sr.Vice President for the New York Amsterdam News where I pioneered digital transformation for the entire company. From concept to completion. I also served as CRO for an NPR affiliate before launching New Jersey Urban News. I'm a respected figure in New Jersey media, known for my leadership in New Jersey Urban News. My vision for the publication revolves around providing comprehensive coverage of Black and urban issues, community events, and social justice matters within the state. I aim to offer a platform that amplifies the voices of marginalized people and communities and promotes civic engagement.
New Jersey Urban News operates as a vital source of information for residents, focusing on topics such as education, politics, economic development, and cultural events specific to urban areas. The publication strives to foster dialogue, raise awareness, and advocate for positive change within New Jersey's diverse Black and urban communities.
Under my direction, New Jersey Urban News emphasizes journalistic integrity, accuracy, and inclusivity. The operation of the digital publication involves a dedicated team of freelancers, a copy editor, and consultants who work tirelessly to deliver relevant and impactful news to their audience. My leadership ensures that New Jersey Urban News remains a trusted source of information and a catalyst for progress in the region's urban areas.
