Managing Editor at Raptors Republic

Title: Managing Editor at Raptors Republic
Date: October 26, 2015 (July 21, 2009, really) – September 23, 2018
Original Source: Raptors Republic
Synopsis: I tried something new starting with the 2015-16 NBA season. I left my post as Senior NBA News Editor at theScore in order to try my hand at full-time freelancing for a year. Part of that change included me taking over Raptors Republic on a full-time basis as the site’s Managing Editor. It worked out, so I did it for two more years after that.

That meant I was responsible for the content you see there, drumming up ad revenue and sponsorship, organizing our annual events, and managing the staff. It also meant there was too much volume for me to re-post everything here, so it just exists on my Raptors Republic archive.
