Lauren is our first-ever product strategy editor, a new role in the department. She’ll partner with editors, product managers, designers, engineers, data scientists and audience researchers to make updates and improvements to the Cooking app itself, ensuring that we provide a best-in-class user experience. She’ll serve as the newsroom team’s main representative in the product development process, adding her editorial expertise to the discussion. Lauren will also dive into our most important strategic projects, and work to refine the processes that bring our big editorial initiatives to life.
Lauren comes to us from Business Insider, where she was deputy executive editor and chair of the editorial standards board. Prior to that, she spent seven years as an editor at America’s Test Kitchen. She recently moved to New York from Kansas, but she continues to live like a lifelong Bostonian, drinking Dunkin’ iced coffee all winter long.
