Claim your profileMatt Ballinger is a deputy editor at the Los Angeles Times.Previously, I worked on the climate, health and science team and on content business strategy. Before that I was the founding editor of The Times’ Utility Journalism Team. I have led and worked on multiple newsroom technology rollouts, but I came up through the journalism ranks as a copy editor. Along the way, I've been a homepage editor, blogged about history and the L.A. Times archives, and helped edit the Homicide Report, a constantly-updating data journalism project about homicides in Los Angeles County.Away from the office, I love to travel, cook and play music.
