Kari Hulac is the Editor-in-Chief of Richmondside.

What I cover: As Editor-in-Chief, I oversee all Richmondside's journalism.

My background: A Bay Area resident for most of my life, and an East Bay reporter and editor for 13 years, I have worn many hats in a journalism career spanning more than 20 years. I held several editorial leadership positions at the Bay Area News Group between 1997 and 2010, including editor of The (Hayward) Daily Review and features editor of The Oakland Tribune. I was a senior editor based in the East Bay at local online news network Patch, and a fill-in breaking news editor at Bay City News.
