Millie Tran is a journalist and media executive. She is the vice president of content strategy and growth at Condé Nast.[1]
Career[edit]
Tran began her career by working at National Journal, the Council on Foreign Relations and the American Press Institute.
In 2015, she joined BuzzFeed News, where she helped launch the BuzzFeed News app, edited the daily BuzzFeed News newsletter and led a team of editors and producers to share BuzzFeed News content in other languages, platforms and formats.[2][3][4]
She then worked at The New York Times, serving as Global Growth Editor and Deputy Off-Platform Editor, overseeing coverage and distribution of content on social media and elsewhere.[5][6]
During the COVID-19 pandemic, Tran helped lead the Texas Tribune as chief product officer.[7][8] She helped coordinate the newsroom's response to winter storms that caused massive power outages, including by developing a text-message service for readers in 24 hours.[9]
Condé Nast hired Tran in June 2021. Her job announcement said she would "work within the global content operations organization and collaborate with creative, editorial, commercial, consumer and product teams to deliver premium experiences across all media for audiences and advertising partners."[10]
Impact on the media industry[edit]
Tran has spoken at numerous conferences and on many podcasts about journalism in the digital age.[11][12][13]
She gained attention in 2017 after creating a viral PowerPoint presentation entitled "What Am I Going To Do With My Life???" Many journalists have cited it as a guide for how to think about career development.[14][15][16]
She also helped sparked an industry-wide conversation about burnout and operational resilience in 2021 when she left her job at the Tribune along with its editorial director, Stacy-Marie Ishmael.[17][18][19][20]

Tran was born in Vietnam, grew up in California and graduated from UCLA. She lives in New York City.[21]
