Words, thoughtfully strung together, can make a difference.
Carren is a thoughtful editor who cares passionately about the stories. For her, each story is an entry into another reality. She is the Senior Editor for Culture at Stacker, a 21st-century newswire. Previously, she was the section editor for arts and culture at L.A. PBS station KCET, where she oversaw the Arts & Culture, Food, Travel, and History sections, as well as special projects. She has helped shape stories on the Grammy bias against hip-hop, the inner workings of book ban machines, the difficult conditions of farmworkers in California, the deep well of expertise in a $1.50 taco, and the resurgence of Chicano soul music to name a few.
What people are saying.
“She's an incredibly thoughtful and supportive editor who has helped me craft stories that are among my proudest moments as a journalist thanks to her valuable insights. I'm especially grateful for her commitment as an editor and a writer to cover communities often overlooked in mainstream media. I'm a huge fan of her work and anyone who has the opportunity to work with Carren will find that the relationship you develop with her will be one to treasure.”

“It is a joy to have Carren as an editor. She treats me and my work with respect, and provides clear, specific feedback that makes my writing stronger, more focused, and more relevant.”
