About Christoph
Christoph has lived in Eastern Iowa since 1995 after moving to Iowa City from Germany. A newspaper reporter by trade, he left the newspaper industry in 2007 to research, write and produce training videos for the U.S. financial services industry.
In 2009, he launched EasternIowaNews.com to expand his skills in web publishing, social media marketing and the building of communities. He ran this project in addition to his full-time producer position.
In early 2010, he started at SourceMedia Group, which owns The Gazette and KCRG-TV9, as supervisor of digital and community news and product manager (new and digital products). In this role he trained journalists and engaged various topical communities in Eastern Iowa. He also led the Content Support Team, which touched content (from the community as well as staffers) from the submission stage to the archiving stage.
In September 2011, he made the move to United Way of East Central Iowa as the organization’s manager of marketing and communications. There he leads a team that focuses on telling United Way’s story through a variety of channels – including print, digital, social media and video.
