About Us

Living Jackson was inspired by an appreciation of Jackson County, a love for publishing, and interest in community service. The team behind Living Jackson makes the magazine a success.

Jackson County residents Roxane Rose, publisher; Caine Campbell, editor; Joshua Barnett, Youth Apprenticeship Student; Gail Daly, contributing writer; and Yasmin Loft and Kim Kyst, sales account executives, bring a knowledge and love of the area to the table. Our contributing writers, among them local librarians, specialists in their fields, and both newcomers and old-timers alike, provide articulate, delightful and well-rounded stories. Creative Director and Web developer Tom Jordan, of T. Jordan Design & Marketing in Buford, takes the flavor of Living Jackson to the Internet and is a valuable team member for design and printing.

Combined, members of the team have more than 50 years experience in publishing, more than 25 years in the marketing field and countless years of writing.

Many of the Living Jackson staff are also involved in area civic and nonprofit organizations. Look for us at Jackson County events and festivals!
