Alexander Howard – Editor

As managing editor, I was responsible for the content and editorial strategy of Lonely Planet magazine, a quarterly with a rate base of 125,000. I worked with dozens of freelance writers to develop, create and edit travel and general interest content for Lonely Planet's award-winning magazine. I was hands-on at every stage of the process, managing day-to-day operations of the US magazine team, writing and developing features, commissioning new writers, and coordinating photo shoots and research trips.

I managed all digital and print content relating to Canada and the Western US, overseeing guidebook development through planning, research, and editing. In the digital space, I worked with writers to develop engaging content in the form of blog posts, online features and reviews.
