Dan Colarusso, executive editor of digital at Reuters, sent out the following staff hire announcement on Tuesday:
We’re extremely happy to announce that Cassandra Garrison is joining Reuters.com as our Social Media/Live News Editor. She’ll be reporting to Managing Editor Brian Tracey.
Cassandra was previously Digital Managing Editor for Metro New York/Boston/Philadelphia, where she oversaw all online content and social media initiatives. Together with the online team, she was responsible for transitioning Metro, a daily newspaper, into a digital-first operation. Before moving into editorial management at Metro, she cut her teeth as a reporter covering events like Occupy Wall Street, the 2012 London Olympics and Hurricane Sandy.
Cassandra, a graduate of the E.W. Scripps School of Journalism at Ohio University, began her career at WJET/WFXP in Erie, Penn., as a reporter and later anchor of the market’s top-rated morning news program.
Outside of journalism, she will become yet another Reuters.com team member who is an avid runner, as she participated in her first NYC Marathon last year.
Cassandra starts April 7. Please join us in welcoming her to her new job.
