Audience EditorAs KCUR’s Audience Editor, I‘m always asking: What do our communities need to know, and how can KCUR best deliver that? I help figure out how our journalism lives online, so we can serve more people, build trust with our communities, and amplify joy.
You'll find me overseeing KCUR's website and social media, among other things. I also edit the KCUR podcasts Kansas City Today, A People's History of Kansas City and Hungry For MO and serve as digital editor for Overlooked, Seeking A Scientist and Up From Dust.
I'm a Pittsburgh native and previously worked as Digital News Editor at WOSU Public Media in Columbus, Ohio. Contact me at gabe@kcur.org or on Twitter @gabrieljr.
