As managing editor of news for HuffPost Canada, I manage a team of talented editors and direct editorial coverage, long-term strategy, best practices and special projects for a national website and social accounts.

Journalism runs in the family as my parents managed Vancouver's first Chinese radio program. After earning a journalism degree from Carleton University, I spent a fruitful 12 years with CBC News in B.C., Alberta, Ontario and New Brunswick as a TV reporter, videojournalist and online writer.

I believe in proper grammar, underdog sports movies and snagging deals on Bunz.

This is how I taught Peter Mansbridge to pronounce my name: Andree like "laundry," Lau like "cow." Please don't call me Laundry Cow.
