Loughlin graduated from Salisbury University in 2005. In his free time, you can find him teaching his two young daughters how to bike, skateboard, and play softball. He and his partner grow a variety of vegetables in their Brooklyn backyard. And if you get him going, you’ll likely hear stories about growing up in Saudi Arabia, and you’ll definitely hear about his love of the New York Giants.
Loughlin began his career at Whitehouse Post, was elevated to editor at Alldayeveryday, and was then a much sought after freelance editor all over New York and beyond.
“Colin is a real pro and an excellent addition to the Optimus roster,” said Optimus EP, Managing Director Brian Hrastar. “The diversity of his creative work and New York-based clientele is a complement to our already expansive editorial offerings. Beyond all of that, Colin’s a lot of fun to work with.”
