Sarah J.F. Braley

Managing Editor

My favorite part of working for Northstar dates me, as I still adore putting together the print editions of Meetings & Conventions, which I joined in 1994 after eight years at New Jersey Monthly. My favorite destinations are Australia, New Zealand and Ireland. I hold a master's from the Medill School of Journalism at Northwestern and a B.A. in Journalism from the UMass Amherst. I am an avid reader; my favorite Peloton cycling instructors are Christine D'Ercole, Denis Morton and Jenn Sherman; and I live in New Jersey.
