Malia Griggs

Malia Griggs is the commerce editor at Glamour, who writes about everything from gifting to sex toys. Her career spans across digital media, including reporting and editing shopping content for SELF; covering breaking news and the 2016 election as The Daily Beast's director of social media; tweeting and prepping high-profile guests as social media coordinator for The Colbert Report, The Daily Show, and The Nightly Show; and teaching 50+ men how to wax their chests for America's Hottest Bachelor Contest while working at Cosmopolitan. In addition to shopping, she has written about mental health, burnout, epilepsy, race, and dating. Malia holds a BA in Anthropology from the University of South Carolina and is a member of the Poynter Leadership Academy for Women in Digital Media. Originally from South Carolina, she's lived in Brooklyn for over a decade—and when she's not at her laptop, she's likely people-watching in Prospect Park, cuddling her cats, or contemplating doing stand-up.
