The New York Times has welcomed Laura Salaberry as a graphics multimedia editor on Digital News Design. Partnering with the Reporter Video team, Laura will work collaboratively with video journalists, reporters and visual journalists to create informative and engaging short-form vertical videos using original design and animation.
Laura joins The Times from Dow Jones, where she spent the last eight years, most recently as the video creative director for MarketWatch and Barron’s. There she oversaw visual aspects of all video production, from a documentary-style series on early retirees to animations on financial education basics and explainers breaking down the cost of everyday things.
Prior to her career in video, Laura worked as a graphic designer for the newspaper Folha de S.Paulo and Editoria Abril in Brazil, where she’s originally from. She holds a master’s degree in media studies and a graduate certificate in documentary filmmaking, both from The New School.
