Bio
Scott Neumyer
Andrew is easily one of the best editors I've ever worked with. He allows the autonomy needed to bring a personal feel to an article, but he's hands-on enough to always feel that you're in good hands. Great edits and not nit-picky in any way. Andrew has made my work better for having worked with him.

Executive Features Editor
-
Mar 2011 - Aug 2016
I assigned and edited nearly all original written content, serving as the brand’s sole online-only editor until 2014. Afterward, I took on the leadership of our burgeoning features and longform program, shepherding stories about year one of Obama’s air war against ISIS, mom-and-pop ISPs, what happens inside a crematorium, and the man who invented Whac-a-Mole (and says it was stolen from him).

Nov 2009 - Mar 2011
I wrote multiple posts daily for DISCOVER's news aggregation blog, 80beats, and created original stories and photo galleries based on my own ideas. Publicized online content via social media. Helped to manage (and appease) a sprawling network of independent bloggers. Edited “Hot Science” reviews section, a monthly compendium of science-related books, movies, museum exhibits, music, TV, and more. Wrote some content, assigned the rest, and oversaw the development and overall scope of this monthly two-page spread. Fact-checked the full-length magazine features and columns. A laborious process sustained by love. Show less

May 2005 - Aug 2005
As the intern at a small town daily, I had the opportunity to report and write stories of all kinds—finding something new at a county fair, talking to trailer park residents trying to save their home, following extreme vandalism at the local YMCA, and more. I also created a 4-day, 9-story package about a runaway teen, and the effects on her family, friends, school and town.
