Cultureflux.com offers an insider's look at art, culture and entertainment in DC. Our team of talented writers is dedicated to uncovering the most scintillating and often unheralded events and trends in the city. Whether it's a provocative new art space, a stylish boutique, an up-and-coming musician, or an undiscovered artist, you'll read about it on Cultureflux.com.

Founded in March 2002 by Sacha Cohen, an editor, writer, and long-time DC resident, Cultureflux.com was originally conceived as a way for people to learn about both mainstream and non-mainstream art and entertainment in the city through an interactive email list. However, growing demand for more in-depth information and opinions prompted Cohen to create an online magazine to satisfy an audience hungry for more than what conventional outlets have to offer.

Founder

Sacha Cohen, Cultureflux.com's founder and editorial director, has worked in print and online publishing for the past decade. Sacha began her career at the Cahners Publishing Company in Chicago in 1992, writing and editing for a group of furniture design magazines. Deeming the Chicago winters unbearable, she returned to Washington, DC, in 1995, just as the Internet was taking hold.

Beginning in 1996, Sacha wrote a column about the Internet and its impact on the workplace for Training & Development magazine. Not satisfied merely writing about the dotcom world, she went to work for enews.com as an editor, producer, and strategic partnership manager. Working with such industry giants as Excite and Yahoo!, Sacha helped position enews.com as the leading magazine subscription service on the Web.

After leaving enews.com in late 1998, Sacha started her own writing and content development business. Her articles and columns have appeared in The Washington Post, USA Today online, New York Magazine, Fast Company, UPI, Oxygen, and many other print and online publications. Sacha was also the Web Career Expert for Monster.com and a career columnist for Kiplinger.com. In addition to feature writing, Sacha works with a variety of non-profit and for-profit clients to help them develop Web site content and strategy

Sacha received a BA in English Literature from the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
