    Production EditorVogue Hong Kong
    Hong KongFull Time
    Having played a foundational role in securing the license to publish Vogue Hong Kong, I was central in assembling a bilingual (English and Traditional Chinese) production team for the magazine. I oversee print production, including copy-flow, editing, input on the design process, securing image rights and syndication of content. I produce the magazine’s fashion photoshoots, coordinating photographers, stylists, models and brands in multiple countries. I produce online content for the magazine’s commercial partnerships and edit the magazine's food and travel sections.
