About Diana
Little did I know it at the time, but I started my publishing career in the 80s. I was 10 and submitted a poem and a book report to the teenage page of The Toronto Sun. They were both published!
Fast-forward to the late 90s when I wrote for The Varsity at the University of Toronto and was the associate news editor. My very first published piece there was about advertisements in bathroom stalls. The entire piece was re-written by my editor. My first in-person interview that I can remember was with Dr. Henry Morgentaler. What a trip!
Currently at CityNews, I'm a manager of a team of digital journalists who update this website every single day.
Before CityNews, I was the first digital managing editor at 680 NewsRadio Toronto. I started in 2006.
Prior to my time here at Rogers Sports & Media, I was part of the pioneering digital team at globeandmail.com from 1999-2006, introducing breaking news to the site for the first time ever, then covering memorable events like 9-11 and the death of Pope John Paul II. I worked at the newspaper as well, writing, editing and laying out pages -- in every section except sports.
I also teach journalism at Toronto Metropolitan University and have been there since 2009.
