DA

David Artavia

With a decade of experience as a journalist and editor in both digital and print media, I lead award-winning editorial teams and produce projects that sit at the intersections of entertainment, activism, culture, fashion, and travel.

In every aspect of my role as a journalist and multimedia producer, I aim to create work that has a positive impact on marginalized communities. My reporting has ignited dialogue about issues impacting people of color, placing pressure at the local and federal level to implement structural change. Under my leadership, my teams and I have received several Folio, NLGJA, and GLAAD Media Awards.

I am passionate about creating an inclusive and diverse workplace that mirrors my own advocacy and activism. I have successfully steered multiple publications through changes in ownership, cultural shifts, and an ever-evolving digital media landscape. During these changes and transformations, I ensured my teams worked in a high-performance culture that fostered a diversity of views and voices.
