EDITING
I was the Editor-in-Chief of the following websites.
Parentology - The leading website for parenting and technology.
First to Know - Pop culture site delivering the latest viral stories on the web.
Knoworthy - Female-focused “how to” site covering everything from finance and travel to cooking and dating.
How Life Works - General interest site focused on content arbitrage and sponsored editorial.
Sites were built with a strong SEO-focused content creation followed by an aggressive paid and organic social media strategy. In 2021 the parent company behind Parentology, First to Know, How Life Works, and Knoworthy closed, taking the websites with it. The above links go to Wayback Machine archive of the sites.
