Advisory & sales: Kerry Rogers
Kerry Rogers has eight years’ experience in consumer and contract magazines in South Africa, involved in both editorial and production. She is now a freelance production consultant, writer, editor and subeditor.
Most recently, she was managing editor at Cosmopolitan South Africa for four years. Prior to that, she was assistant editor of Top Billing magazine and chief copy editor of Marie Claire South Africa. She has also worked on GQ South Africa and Style, and at Picasso Headline, which at the time published about 20 custom titles.
Kerry has spent much of her publishing career improving efficiency and quality within teams and processes. In between that, she has written extensively for many titles, had her first book published, and interviewed some crazy celebrities (including her childhood crush Patrick Swayze). She has battled with unsuitable software for creating flatplans for many years, which is why it made sense to her to get involved in Blinkplan.
Kerry has a BA in with distinctions in majors English and philosophy, as well as a first-class BMus Honours in dance musicology, both attained at the University of Cape Town. She lives in Cape Town with her husband and young son and spends more time than necessary writing on her tiny computer.
