CNBC.com promotes two news staffers, hires one

CNBC.com managing editor Jeff McCracken announced Friday the following promotions:

In San Francisco, Ari Levy has been promoted to senior technology editor, where he will oversee coverage of America’s most important tech companies, ranging from Apple and Amazon to Tesla and Nvidia. Under him, the team will examine how these companies mature and their efforts to grow into businesses around AI, the metaverse and elsewhere.

Levy has spent the past decade reporting and editing on the tech beat at CNBC, following 11 years at Bloomberg where he primarily covered tech and finance.

In Washington, D.C., Christina Wilkie has been promoted to senior politics editor, responsible for leading our coverage of the White House, Congress, federal courts and elections. Under her guidance, the team has focused more on how government policy, from new tax plans to industry regulations, impacts companies, consumers and the market.

Prior to her new position, Wilkie was a politics reporter for CNBC.com covering the Trump White House. She built her career as a politics reporter for The Hill, HuffPost and the nonprofit Center for Public Integrity, where her team won an Edward R. Murrow Award.

Finally, Danielle DeVries has joined the newsroom’s photo desk as an associate photo editor based in Englewood Cliffs. DeVries grew up in New York’s Hudson Valley and graduated from the Rochester Institute of Technology with a degree in photojournalism. Most recently, she worked as a photo editor for the NBA and National Geographic TV. She also freelanced for the United States Tennis Association and ABC News.
