Another hat for Stephens--APSE 2nd VP

Tim Stephens wears many hats. Stephens works as the sports topics manager at both the Orlando Sentinel and the South Florida Sun Sentinel. This summer he’ll embark on a new endeavor and don a new hat as APSE second vice president. Since his hiring in 2003 by the Orlando Sentinel, he has worked as a copy editor, deputy editor and assistant sports editor there. In 2009 he was named sports project manager for the Orlando Sentinel and a year later he was also given those same duties at the South Florida Sun Sentinel as well. Stephens will be sworn in at the APSE convention in Boston. One of the main duties for Stephens this year will be maintaining the APSE web site; next year, he'll move up to first vice president then in 2013 will take over as president. Current president Michael Anastasi is certain Stephens is the right man for the job. “Tim is one of the most talented hard working inovatitve sports editors in the country,” Anastasi said. “I have absolute confidence that he is going to be an outstanding president."
