ABOUT THE EDITOR

Charlie Caruso

Charlie Caruso is on a mission to change the world! Disenchanted with the current state of media, Charlie is committed to shaking up the media industry and re-introducing quality content — minus the sleaze and spin.

A writer, producer, NFP executive, and a start-up(erer), Charlie embraces entrepreneurship in all facets, and has done so since the ripe old age of 16.

Her first NFP start-up, PuggleFM (disruptive radio model for parents) was listed in Shoe String Australia's Top 10 Start-ups for 2013. PuggleFM was developed as an online radio and podcasting station created especially for parents and children. Since its inception, PuggleFM has found audiences in the US, Europe, across Australia and Asia, that are looking for an alternative to commercial radio. Charlie was listed in Anthill Australia's 30under30 (Young Entrepreneur Awards) and received the Special Inspiration Recognition Award at the 2013 WAITTA Awards Gala night for her contribution to ICT.

Charlie has become a sought-after speaker, and in 2014 has already agreed to speak at various events in London, New York and throughout Australia, speaking on Gen Y, female leadership and the media revolution.
