About Mollie Leavitt

I\'m passionate about building sustainable business models for trustworthy journalism. I specialize in news business and product strategy, facilitating cross-functional collaboration across editorial, marketing, and product teams, and enhancing news organizations\' operational efficiency through technology and automation. Previously, I worked on the strategy and research side, building strategic frameworks based on competitive analysis and audience research. Before that, I worked as a journalist covering politics in Buenos Aires while studying journalism and political science at Northwestern University.
