About

Hi there! My name's Nicole Darrah. I'm a senior editor with Yahoo’s original content team, where I manage a group of general assignment reporters who focus on breaking, live and trending news across news, entertainment and life. For nearly a decade, I've worked in local and national newsrooms in New York, covering topics from regional court cases to U.S. elections. I feel comfortable at all stages of story development and enjoy working with reporters to transform a nugget of an idea into a well-rounded and interesting news story that resonates with an audience. My true love in this industry, however, is breaking news. I thrive in fast-paced news environments, and find myself to be skilled at quick decision-making and providing clear communication on the fly. When news breaks, I can quickly identify a story and see it through to publication within minutes, working with reporters and audience teams as the story continues to develop. Feel free to reach out, whether it’s to network or to chat!
