 Reta Lee (pictured right), formerly Editor‑in‑Chief of Yahoo Life Southeast Asia, has been appointed PR Account Director at MM Communications. In her new role, she will partner with the agency’s teams across Singapore, Jakarta, and Hong Kong, collaborating with Dubai to align regional storytelling and brand strategy. Reta will also lead integrated content and communications initiatives, connecting clients with audiences through insight-driven narratives.

Before MM Communications, she led Yahoo Life Southeast Asia’s editorial direction, managing multi-market teams producing lifestyle, entertainment, culture, and e-commerce content. She has also managed Her World Singapore and contributed to several of Singapore’s top lifestyle publications.

“I'm thrilled to bring the craft of high-impact content to the fore, helping clients not just communicate, but resonate. Great content doesn't just fill space - it earns trust, builds authority, and moves people to act,” said Reta. “Working alongside Marina and the team to craft communications that resonate across audiences is an exciting next chapter in my career.”

Marina Mathews (pictured left), Founder and Managing Director of MM Communications, added, “Reta’s editorial instinct, clarity of thought, and digital fluency bring an elevated dimension to our creative and strategic work. Having spent many years working across Asia and the Middle East, I’ve seen first-hand how the relationship between brand and media continues to evolve. Reta’s ability to translate insights into authentic, resonant narratives will be invaluable as we continue to guide clients through that evolution. Her proven editorial leadership and nuanced understanding of audience engagement will further strengthen how we build, protect, and amplify our clients’ reputations across diverse markets.”
