MEET OUR STAFF

Alanna Ritchie
Director of Advertising
aritchie@scpress.org
In addition to finding creative solutions for advertisers, Alanna is an expert juggler of headlines and deadlines with a secret passion for vocabulary. Her favorite word of all time is “eleemosynary.” It just rolls off the tongue, don’t you think? (And by the way, it means “charitable.”)

Jimmie Haynes
Director of Network Sales
jhaynes@scpress.org
A veteran of the newspaper industry, Jimmie manages SCNN’s discounted ad networks. In addition to cheering up clients with unbeatable value, Jimmie has been cheering up cancer patients for more than 25 years with his Singing Santa visitations to hospitals and other non-profits.

Lacey Breit
Advertising Coordinator
lbreit@scpress.org
With a strong attention to detail and a healthy dose of OCD, Lacey keeps SCNN’s advertising schedules running smoothly. A native of Texas, she’s one Longhorn that you don’t want to meet on the kickball field… she’ll keep the score straight.

Marlene Espino
Tearsheet Coordinator
mespino@scpress.org
On any given day, Marlene “reads” and reviews hundreds of newspapers to make sure that ad flights run as scheduled. A self-professed shop-a-holic, she always knows the best retail sales (an unintended occupational hazard of looking at all those ads).

Sharon Bailey
Director of Finance
sbailey@scpress.org
Behind the scenes, Sharon stays in front of the bottom line. When she’s not creating invoices and spreadsheets, she creates ceramic jewelry and spoils her menagerie of pets.

Randall Savely
Director of Operations
rsavely@scpress.org
Randall keeps SCNN profitable by overseeing our daily operations. If that sounds stressful, don’t feel too sorry for him. Every summer, he treats himself and his teenage daughter to an uber-relaxing island vacation, leaving us here to fend for ourselves.

Bill Rogers
Executive Director
brogers@scpress.org
Bill is the old hand, being at the helm when SCNN first began placing ads two decades ago. Like our industry, Bill has evolved. He’s begun reading papers online, texting his grandsons via Siri and tweeting. Interesting facts: was once a college professor, and, as a reporter, interviewed Willie Nelson.

Jen Madden
SCPA Assistant Director
jmadden@scpress.org
Jen is the glue that connects SCNN with our parent organization, the South Carolina Press Association. She coordinates special events and projects at the office, but can also be spotted FaceTime-ing with her dog, Captain Von Trapp, and occasionally, her husband Jeremi.
