Audience EditorAs KCUR’s Audience Editor, I constantly ask the questions: What do people need from us, and how can we best deliver it? I work across departments and projects to ensure our entire community is represented in and best served by our journalism. I help lead KCUR’s digital efforts to make our station more responsive, more competitive and more engaging.
I also edit the KCUR podcasts Kansas City Today and Hungry For MO and serve as digital editor for Overlookedand A People's History of Kansas City.
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.
