SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA, USA, August 1, 2024 – Simpler Media Group, Inc. (SMG) is thrilled to formally announce the promotion of Dom Nicastro to Editor-in-Chief of CMSWire.com, effective as of August 2024. Nicastro has been an integral part of CMSWire since 2013, significantly contributing to the platform’s growth and success in the realm of digital customer experience, digital experience and customer service. Nicastro is an award-winning journalist and radio personality based in Manchester, NH.

As editor-in-chief, he will continue to manage the site’s day-to-day operations and the CMSWire Contributor Network, as well as serve as a main host for CMSWire TV and the CX Decoded podcast. He will also continue his role as emcee and moderator for Simpler Media Group’s digital and in-person conferences.

Nicastro’s journalism career spans over 24 years, beginning at Fuller Elementary School in Gloucester, Mass., where he wrote sports articles for the school’s newsletter. He studied journalism at Salem State College, where he also played baseball and contributed to the college’s newspaper. Dom’s professional career includes notable roles at the Daily Times Chronicle and the Gloucester Daily Times, where he earned multiple awards for his writing and editing.

Reflecting on his promotion, Nicastro said, “No matter what role, what industry, or what medium I’ve had in journalism, the mission is still the same: deliver content that makes an impact and inspires new ways of thinking for your readers, who after all, trust you every day to do just that.”

Brice Dunwoodie, founder and CEO of Simpler Media Group, shared his thoughts on Nicastro’s promotion: “I’ve watched Dom evolve from a reporter to an editor to a leader, and along the way, he has become a pillar of the SMG team and a trusted (and entertaining!) voice for the global CMSWire community. Dom’s love of the subject matter and passion for our membership shine through everything he does. And his commitment to impactful information gathering has made him widely loved and widely respected as a journalist. As a founder, it’s one of my greatest joys to see people like Dom grow, thrive and take a leading role in shaping the future of this company. As we enter the third decade of this publication’s journey, I’m truly excited to see him shape the next chapter of CMSWire.”

Dom’s SMG career began as a freelancer before transitioning to a full-time reporter in 2014 and later becoming the managing editor in February 2022.
