Background

About Alex Robert Ross

I’m a creative strategist and editorial leader with over a decade of experience shaping sharp, culturally resonant stories across platforms. As Editorial Director at The FADER, I led global teams through a strategic overhaul. I launched new podcasts, reshaped our long-form journalism, and drove ambitious campaigns for partners like Google, Puma, and Major League Soccer. I’ve written features for Pitchfork, Slate, The Quietus, and Huck, hosted and produced The FADER Interview podcast, and developed branded content that bridges editorial depth with audience relevance. My work spans journalism, brand strategy, podcasting, and content architecture, always with a focus on clarity, voice, and connection. I'm also the co-founder and editor of SORRY, a new Toronto-based magazine about the city’s cultures and contradictions, launching in the summer of 2025. Whether I’m editing a long-form feature or building a content strategy from scratch, I focus on clarity, tone, and work that resonates.
