Christie Gosch has been named owner and publisher of Front Porch newspaper. Gosch is a familiar face at Front Porch having worked at the paper for the past 18 years, most recently as a photographer and graphic design editor. It was a natural fit for her to take on ownership of the paper from the retiring publishers Carol Roberts and Steve Larson.

“I’m excited to move into the role as the new publisher of Front Porch. I started working for the paper when my kids were little and slowly learned the business from the ground up. Being mentored by Carol and Steve has been a privilege and I look forward to continuing their legacy. I couldn’t  do my job without the support of the wonderful Front Porch team, who help to provide the community with a quality, local newspaper that we are proud to publish each month,” says Gosch.

Linda Kotsaftis remains as editor of the paper and Brian Saxman as ad sales manager.

Front Porch is delivered free of charge to more than 24,000 households in the Central Park, Park Hill, Lowry, Montclair, Mayfair, East Colfax, and northwest Aurora neighborhoods.

Christie and her husband, Stan, live in Central Park. She can be reached directly at DesignEditor@FrontPorchNE.com
