Karina Frayter, most recently a field producer at CNBC Business News, has joined RF|Binder as managing director to drive media relations at the New York-based independent shop.
At CNBC, Frayter covered the stock market, IPOs, economy, banking, fintech and payments. She produced the “Where the Jobs Are” series and her digital documentary, “The Bitcoin Uprising,” earned an honorable mention by Cablex Program Awards.
Prior to joining CNBC in 2010, Frayter was New York assignment editor at CNN during the financial crisis and worked in London and Atlanta for CNN International.
CEO Amy Binder believes Frayter’s “seasoned, hands-on experience in the newsroom offers us a new advantage in understanding the way reporters think, act, and make decisions today and will further help our clients stand out as the leading voices in today’s conversations on business, the economy, social issues, and culture.”
