MusicRow Hires Caitlin Rantala

MusicRow Publisher/President Sherod Robertson announces the hiring of Caitlin Rantala as Web Graphic Designer and Production Manager. Effective immediately, she will oversee the magazine’s art and design in both its printed and digital incarnations. She will also manage all advertising-related artwork, and contribute to online editorial content.

In 2010, Rantala graduated from Elon University in North Carolina with degrees in Digital Art and Professional Writing and Rhetoric. Shortly after, she moved to Nashville, where she has been writing part-time for MusicRow since September 2011.

“Caitlin Rantala is a testament to the power of emails and personal websites,” explains Robertson. “After she exchanged emails with Founder David Ross for a year, David forwarded one to me. Although I wasn’t hiring at that time, I quickly read it, clicked on her website, and archived it. But it made an impression. Six months later, she is the newest creative addition to MusicRow and I’m very delighted. Her creative energy is contagious and I’m looking forward to what she brings to our future.”
