It’s #Webbys day! Honored to help @nowthisnews accept the award for our Presidential Forum w/ Joe Biden!
As is tradition with @thewebbyawards, we had to come up with a 5-word acceptance speech.
“Empower. Take Action. Create Change.”
50% of NowThis’ newsroom was laid off today, including me. I have a lot of thoughts & feelings, but for now, I need to figure out my next move. To that end, I’m open to producing and/or editing work, freelance or otherwise. DMs are open, or send me an email: [email protected]
After more than four years at NowThis, I was laid off last week, along with a number of my incredible colleagues. I started as NowThis’ sole copy editor, and I leave having built and led a copy team I believed in so deeply, which will forever be a career highlight.
Hi I just got laid off from my job at NowThis. I’m locked out of my email and my computer so I didn’t even know until a coworker texted me. I worked there for 6+ years as a senior writer and I worked very hard there. I’ll post a bunch of stuff I worked on but I need a job :-)
