After a dozen reporting and editing jobs in as many years in the Edmonton Journal newsroom, Kerry is now Director of Digital Products, where her focus is on development of new digital revenue sources to support good journalism. In the treacherous and evolving landscape of the news industry, she sees herself as an intermediary; someone who understands and respects traditional production methods and as well as the new ones, and can help ease, encourage and speed up the transition.

About TEDx

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
