Dear Fellow Fortune-ites: I’m happy to announce that we have TWO new wonderful colleagues joining us.
Alison “Ali” Klooster has joined FORTUNE as senior manager of brand communications, and will focus on making sure the rest of the media world gets to know FORTUNE’s extraordinary content across its many platforms—digital, print, conference, video, newsletters, carrier pigeon, and more. A native St. Louisan and graduate of the University of Chicago, she was most recently a senior publicist at Viking and Penguin Books. After six years of badgering the news media, she decided to switch sides and try it from the inside (and she apologizes for any irrelevant pitches she may have sent your way—please don’t search your inboxes!). In her free time, she enjoys playing golf and sampling Italian amaro. I urge all of you to send her newsy stories to pitch out.
McKenna Moore joined us, officially, on Oct. 22 as assistant audience engagement editor, working alongside John Buysse. As most of you know, McKenna is coming off of a web production internship at FORTUNE—an internship that impressed her FORTUNE colleagues so much that we had to hire her! McKenna, who graduated from Syracuse University in May, is originally from Ohio and welcomes any discussion of Ohio sports or the Midwest in general. In her spare time, she likes to practice yoga, go to standup comedy shows, and try new hard ciders in her pursuit of the driest in New York City.
Thanks!
Cliff
