Valerie Hughes

As a content strategist and editor, I help brands and media outlets create engaging and authoritative content that captures an audience and drives business results. I have more than 15 years of experience in journalism and digital media, working in New York City and London for outlets such as NBC, Forbes, and Hearst.

I have covered topics ranging from luxury travel, health, fitness and beauty to the London Olympics, and I have won multiple awards for my reporting and content creation. As managing editor at Mediablaze, a digital marketing agency in London, I developed and executed content strategy for clients such as Shiseido, Speedo, Timberland and Think with Google. Most recently, I filled in as Deputy Editor for Hearst's Enthusiast Group, managing a team of writers and contributors, overseeing the daily publishing schedule of 5 stories a day and strategizing on new ways to grow and engage the audience at BestProducts.com.

I have proven skills in web content, editorial management, SEO, omnichannel content, and digital analytics. I am passionate about creating content that informs, inspires, and entertains audiences, and that aligns with the brand's vision, voice, and values. I love to mentor junior writers and editors, am always eager to learn new skills, explore new topics, and collaborate with talented teams.
