OVERVIEW My extensive career as a financial information and publishing professional
has given me a deep understanding of the global financial markets. I also
have a high level of experience with all kinds of media and platforms, and
have helped manage S&P Global’s transition to an online product lineup
from print.
At S&P Global, my responsibilities encompassed content management,
product development, and project management, while maintaining the
highest editorial standards and consistency. I directed, on a global basis,
the content on RatingsDirect, a $300 million-plus real-time Web product
and social media like Twitter, LinkedIn, and an iPhone app. I was also the
Managing Editor for Insights, the online quarterly successor to
CreditWeek, for which I was also the Managing Editor. In addition, I
determined the content for a 25,000-plus subscriber newsletter,
CreditMatters Today, as well as managed content on spratings.com. I also
managed, selected, formatted, and otherwise developed the images for
Standard & Poor’s 50,000-image library that appear on their products.
I managed the team that tests enhancements for a global online publishing
management system. I was a member of member of many cross-functional
teams, and represented editorial for online and print products on a global
technology operations committee. In addition, I helped launch a Web
version of CreditWeek.
I worked and coordinated with analytical, marketing, communications,
technology and development, and design and production staff on a daily
basis. Understanding financial information, analyzing issues, and
developing creative solutions was a key portion of my responsibilities.
For six years at Moody’s Investors Service, I helped develop their
financial database. When transferred to Moody’s Charlotte, NC office, I
developed the teams that derived financial data from annual and quarterly
SEC filings for U.S. companies, and annual reports from companies
globally that used their domestic accounting presentations. In addition, I
helped develop the categorization of their financial data. Ultimately, these
data formed the basis for Moody’s financial publications, which I helped
write and edit.
