Kelly has a keen grasp on the moderate-meets-luxury-lifestyle industry and brings extensive experience producing vibrant visual story packages and leading talented editorial teams in creating award winning content. Kelly is hands-on with generating story ideas and editing, and is frequently navigating the Twin Cities scouting houses, and attending editorial shoots and local lifestyle events. BRIAN JOHNSON CREATIVE DIRECTOR Brian leads the creative team for Mpls.St.Paul, including Home & Design and Weddings.

Largest and most influential lifestyle editorial team in the Twin Cities DREW WOOD DEPUTY EDITOR Drew works in unison with the leadership team of Mpls.St.Paul to seamlessly integrate our print and digital content. Drew leads the efforts and writes for our Scene & Heard and Out & About areas of the magazine, and is a frequentl contributor and writer to our service features. Drew was formerly the Twin Cities and Travel Editor for Thrillest.com and, prior to that, the editor in chief for Minnesota Business Magazine. Drew brings a fresh perspective to many of our stories, including his enthusiasm for living in the Twin Cities. ALLISON KAPLAN SENIOR EDITOR Allison is, hands down, the local authority on retail, especially in the areas of consumer trend, fashion, and style. In addition to her full-time shopping and style beat, Ali also writes and contributes to features and cover stories. Besides her magazine work, Ali is co-host of the weekly Shop Girls show on mytalk107.1 and is a sought-after expert guest for numerous local radio and television stations. Trend insiders follow her on social media and look to her Ali Shops blog at mspmag.com for timely news on the local scene. Ali also hosts or serves as a speaker at multiple special events for Mpls.St.Paul Magazine and local organizations. STEPHANIE MARCH SENIOR EDITOR Food and dining editor Stephanie March works around the clock covering the local dining scene. Stephanie oversees our monthly coverage in the magazine, and guides multiple cover stories annually in the areas of dining and beverage trends. When not out searching for the perfect bite or best Sazerac, she can be found on her weekend radio show, Weekly Dish on mytalk 107.1, as well as the weekly Beer, Wine, & Spirits show. Stephanie also frequently blogs about the latest dining news, and orchestrates Friday s popular (and awardwinning) The Feed e-newsletter. Stephanie is also very visible at Mpls.St.Paul Magazine events and other food-related events around the Twin Cities as a host, judge, or panelist. 4.

Largest and most influential lifestyle editorial team in the Twin Cities DARA MOSKOWITZ GRUMDAHL SENIOR EDITOR Dara Moskowitz Grumdahl is likely the most awarded food writer in the Twin Cities. Born in New York City, little aware of her destiny to eat out a lot in Minnesota she began writing about the local restaurants in 1997. Now with Mpls.St.Paul, Dara is the other half of our respected food and dining team. In addition to her anticipated dining reviews for the magazine, Dara writes monthly on the people and businesses that are innovating the local landscape, including food purveyors, farmers, and makers. Her food writing has appeared in Gourmet, Saveur, and Bon Appetit, to name a few. Dara has been nominated for her food and wine writing 11 times for James Beard Awards, the Oscars of the food world, and has won a prestigious five times. CHRIS CLAYTON EDITOR-AT-LARGE Chris has been with our organization for five years. Before joining the Mpls.St.Paul team, Chris was deputy editor for Delta Sky, published by MSP Communications. As editor-atlarge, Chris is a contributing writer and frequent editor for stories both large and small. As the former editor-in-chief of the now-shuttered Metro Magazine, Chris is a key voice in our team s engagement with the next generation of readers in the Twin Cities. EMILY HOWALD SEFTON DEPUTY EDITOR, HOME & DESIGN Emily Howald Sefton moved to the Twin Cities after a five-year stint in Chicago, where she created order amid chaos as an editor with Modern Luxury Media. Upon her arrival in Minneapolis, Emily quickly said I do to the role of Mpls.St.Paul Magazine s weddings editor. Since adding Home & Design deputy editor to her business card, Emily enjoys scouring the design scene and inviting herself into the homes of others for inspiration. Her lifestyle cred is equally balanced by her editorial chops and keen eye on style and design. Emily is a frequent representative for Mpls.St.Paul Magazine at events and behind the microphone. 5.
