Caite Hamilton has been telling Charlottesville’s stories since 2007, when she started at C-VILLE as its part-time proofreader. Her passion for local journalism took root even earlier, watching her artist mother and goldsmith father build their own businesses from the ground up, benefitting from the power of good press.

Now, as Editor-in-Chief of C-VILLE’s newspaper and suite of magazines, she continues that mission—lifting up the people who make this city what it is.
