AURORA | Veteran marketing pro and journalist Claire Lardizabal Moser has joined Sentinel Colorado as its new advertising and marketing executive.
“We’re excited and proud to bring Claire onto the Sentinel team,” Editor and Publisher Dave Perry said. “Claire understands both how dynamic and rich the culture, food and business scenes are in Aurora, and she brings a wealth of marketing experience in how to help them succeed by partnering with the Sentinel.”
Moser is a first-generation Filipino American storyteller and received her bachelor of science degree in journalism from the Missouri School of Journalism. She then moved to the metro area to start her career.
As a journalist and food writer, her work has appeared in 5280 Magazine, Boulder Weekly, and History Colorado.
Moser said she excited to return to the media and journalism, especially at time when local news has never been more needed and valuable to the entire community.
Moser was most recently membership events and marketing manager at Clayton Hotel and Members Club in Cherry Creek. She directed more than 2,000 events focused on community building, arts and culture, many for nonprofit organizations such as La Napoule Art Foundation, the International Bipolar Foundation, the Rose Andom Center.
An Aurora resident for more than five years, Moser said she is excited to bring her love of the city and marketing expertise to the city businesses and agencies — and the Sentinel.
“Aurora is one of Colorado’s best kept secrets.,” Moser said. “The restaurants, people, and culture is unlike anywhere else in the Front Range. I look forward to connecting with and giving back to our vibrant community.”
When she’s not out in the community, Moser said she enjoys dining On Havana Street, watching reality TV, and spending time with her husband, rescue dog, and daughter.
