If you spend your time around the Adventist corners of the internet, you probably know the name Kaleb Eisele. He's the founder of Humans of Adventism. He's been a guest lecturer in Adventist universities, teaching about social media and story-telling. He's presented for the Society of Adventist Communicators. He's the host for the Adventist Church-sponsored How the Church Works podcast. For the last 3 1/2 years, he has edited Oregon Adventist Stories and managed social media for the Oregon Conference as an independent contractor.

We're excited to announce that Kaleb is now transitioning to work full-time in the Oregon Conference as our Digital Content Specialist. In this new role, Kaleb will continue to edit Oregon Adventist Stories. In addition, he'll be writing much more about what's happening in our Oregon Conference communities. You've already seen his work for Oregon when he wrote about the Big Lake team as they assisted in a mountain rescue. We're also looking forward to more creative projects that will explore new ways to share our faith and build connections throughout our Oregon Conference family.

"Kaleb is an excellent communicator and storyteller," said Jonathan Russell, assistant to the president for multimedia communication, "He clearly thinks deeply about the impact of his work and seeks to build up the communities in which he serves. His creativity and insight are a fantastic addition to the communication team. We are beyond excited to have Kaleb joining the team full-time!"
