Simone is, simply, the best of the best. Unreal producer, dogged reporter, generous mentor and friend. I can’t wait to see what she, and the rest of the immense talent that @VICENews lost today, do next ❤️

After 7 years, my time at VICE has come to an end. I’ve given so much of myself to this job and from it I’ve produced pieces I am immensely proud of. But I’ve also come to deeply care for my teammates and colleagues. Walking away with their friendship helps to ease the blow.

If you’re smart, you’ll snatch up brilliant people like @simoneMperez who helped build Vice News Tonight. They’re the most creative, dedicated producers in the game.

We spent time with these incredible community members turned activists in 2021 for VICE on @Showtime.
