Keija Minor - Chief Operating Officer
"Minor made publishing history when she was named the first female African American Editor-in-Chief of a Condé Nast magazine in 2012. She accomplished this by taking an enormous personal risk in her 20s: After graduating cum laude from Howard University School of Law, she left a successful career and a six-figure salary to follow her passion, lobbying hard for an internship (with an 85% pay cut) at the startup travel magazine Travel Savvy. Acting on those instincts paid off: Her editorial skills proved formidable and her career trajectory was swift. Travel Savvy recognized her talent and in a few months she was the magazine's Editor-in-Chief. Minor went on to become managing editor of LA Confidential and Aspen Peak, and was named Editor-in-Chief of Gotham Magazine and then Uptown magazine before landing at venerable Conde Nast." - Premier Traveler
