Michael Maness

Ozarks native who dreamed of life in the big city. And so it was : Chicago, NYC, DC, SF and now Miami. Worked for 15 years on the digital and innovation side of a major media company and created somethings along the way (see: thebolditalic.com). Now ensconced as the VP/Journalism & Media Innovation at the Knight Foundation - hovering at the intersection of media, innovation and design thinking. Occasional Ozarks references may still occur.
