Hello, Smyrna-Vinings Patch!

Meet Angela Chao, your new editor for Smyrna-Vinings Patch.

Today's my first day as your new editor for Smyrna-Vinings Patch, and I'm excited to tell your stories and get to know this community.

This is YOUR Patch, and you as the readers, would know what matters the most to you. So please don't hesitate to email me at angela.chao@patch.com with any news tips, thoughts or ideas you have, I'd love to hear from you. If you're interested in knowing more about me as your new editor, please feel free to read my brief bio on Patch.

As much as I'd like to cover every business, every school, every church, every community group and every local achievement, the truth is that I'm one person. I can't do it by myself. That's why I invite you to become a Local Voices blogger, post announcements and press releases, upload events, and share your photos and videos. After reading the instructions below, you'll know just how easy it is, and what's even better, it's free!
