Meet Your Expanded Patch Team

Capitola-Soquel Patch has added a new cadre of editors who are here to cover, connect and serve this community.

You've been coming to Capitola-Soquel Patch since we launched to get unique, quality reporting, engaging stories and video, and a place to connect and converse with your community. Now there is a bigger team devoted to Capitola-Soquel Patch.

Jacob Bourne, Rachel Stern and Derek Wilson have been local editors with Patch since 2010 and 2011, cultivating and nurturing sites around the San Francisco Bay area.

The three editors have worked with their fellow Patch editorial teams in a number of capacities, covering myriad news beats and developing thoughtful and engaging content.

They'll be joined by Associate Regional Editor Genevieve Bookwalter, who brings years of experience and wisdom, and Community Editor Eve Pearlman, who was the local editor of Alameda Patch.

So let us take a minute to catch readers up to speed.
