MERIDIAN

Role:
PRODUCER

I had the immense privilege of being part of the founding team who created Meridian, Vox Media’s newest travel-related website. I was the video and content producer for this website, at times, serving as director and editor. The site started out as a sponsored experiment with Chase Sapphire Reserve, eventually becoming it’s own editorial entity under the Vox Media umbrella. Engaging with over 10 million people over the course of 4 months, Meridian was one of the most successful projects undertaken by Vox Creative.
