I’ve had the privilege of serving as Knight Foundation’s vice president of journalism for nearly four years. It’s been a wild, rewarding and exhilarating ride. I’m proud of the team I’ve built, the infrastructure strategy we’ve created and the more than $200 million in grants we’ve made. It's also been an honor to have played a pivotal role in helping launch and operate Press Forward, a $500 million funding collaborative supporting local news across America. I am confident Knight’s work as a funder and thought leader has helped set the industry up for a brighter future.
But there’s still much work ahead in the fight for sustainable local news. And the field deserves someone who can provide the relentless focus this job requires. To that end, I’ll be departing Knight in mid-June.
