digital journalist & social media strategist

Hi! I’m Rachel. I'm all about telling important stories and connecting with audiences in new ways, and empowering others to do the same. I manage a team that runs some of the biggest news social media accounts in the world, and I have a consistent track record of growing key audiences.

I'm a Senior Producer at CNN International, where I head up the social media team. That means I'm an editor, digital strategist, writer, video producer, data analyst, evangelist and cheerleader — usually all at the same time. Right now, I’m also heading up CNN’s US social media team on an interim basis.

I’m a mentor through the Digital Women Leaders programme, and a frequent speaker at conferences and universities all over the world (lucky me!).
