Sheri Kell, a longtime Georgia resident with business news experience, has been named the Marietta Daily Journal’s business editor.

A story on its website states, “Kell began her career 26 years ago at the Northside Neighbor, the flagship weekly newspaper for the Times Journal and Neighbor Newspaper Group, and since has had an impressive career, including editor positions at a regional commercial real estate magazine and with metro Atlanta public relations and marketing firms.
