As the Publisher and Owner of Rough Draft Atlanta, Keith Pepper leads one of the largest hyperlocal media organizations in metro Atlanta, reaching close to one million monthly readers across print and digital. Before acquiring Rough Draft Atlanta in 2020, he worked in leadership roles at Outbrain, Experian Marketing Services, Jupiter MediaMetrix, and other companies in the media and technology sectors. He has a Master of Social Work degree from Smith College, which gives me a unique perspective on the social and cultural issues that affect our audience and partners. My goal is to use my skills and expertise to empower local voices, support local businesses, and foster local impact.
