Hello, I'm Trey Barrineau, an editor and writer in the Washington, D.C., area. My work has appeared in USA TODAY and elsewhere, and it's been highlighted by The Atlantic, Slate, Yale Environment 360 and other publications. My experience spans content creation and strategy; substantive editing, copy editing and proofreading; social media management and more across a wide range of subjects and publishing formats. I’m currently an editor at AARP, where I work on content for AARP.org's Members Edition, a major digital initiative the organization launched in July 2024 that's focused on entertainment, travel, health, money, retirement, and home and family. Before joining AARP, I was a research editor with the Institute for Justice (IJ), a public interest law firm that frequently argues cases before the U.S. Supreme Court. I helped edit, produce, promote and distribute some of IJ’s social science and public policy research reports. These target a broad audience that includes journalists, legislators, judges, academics and the general public. Prior to that, I spent five years as the managing editor of NAIOP's Development magazine. During my time there, Development won 23 global, national and regional awards for editorial excellence and was a finalist for Magazine of the Year in the American Society of Business Publication Editors' Azbee Awards of Excellence in 2021. Earlier, I was with Key Media & Research, where I was the editor in chief of Door and Window Market (DWM) magazine for nearly four years. While there, DWM won six national and regional awards for B2B publishing, and Slate praised the magazine in a November 2016 article about trade publications. And from 2000 to 2014, I was a multiplatform editor at USA TODAY. In that role, I refined, shaped, promoted and wrote a wide variety of digital and print content for platforms that ranged from the iconic national daily newspaper to mobile apps and specialty publications. I also created posts for USA TODAY's branded social media accounts on Twitter and Facebook. During my time there, I won several awards for outstanding headlines. Got a question? Feel free to reach out. And thanks for stopping by.
