The owners/publishers of LATTE Luxury News are thrilled to announce an expansion of the team with the appointment of Kristen Lazaric to the newly created role of General Manager.
Lazaric brings with her a wealth of experience and a dynamic leadership style honed over two decades in the media, digital publishing and luxury lifestyle sectors. From pioneering content strategies at Dazed Media, British GQ, and NET-A-PORTER, to leading commercial growth at VICE/i-D, NTS Radio, most recently as Commercial Director at Concrete Playground. In those roles she has consistently delivered bold, innovative solutions for global luxury, lifestyle and culture brands.
Her creative vision and commercial acumen are perfectly aligned with LATTE’s mission to lead the conversation in luxury travel, and her appointment marks an exciting new chapter as the business prepares to expand its global footprint.

While Lazaric will head all commercial aspects of LATTE, editorial content will continue to be directed by Managing Editor for the past seven years, Guy Dundas, who has evolved the title to a leading trade news source.
Dundas will continue to steer the editorial production of the publication, through his key industry contacts, 25+ years’ travel trade knowledge and business relationships, to source luxury news relevant to high achieving travel professionals. The addition of Anne Majumdar to the editorial team in October 2024 has added further depth to LATTE‘s exclusive coverage and production.
“LATTE has built a stellar reputation as the go-to publication for luxury travel news in Australia – delivering insightful stories and breaking news in a smart and stylish format that belies its deep connection to the industry,” Lazaric said.
“I’m a huge admirer of what Guy and his team have created and I’m honoured to now be part of shaping its next exciting chapter.”
LATTE is proud to be returning to Las Vegas next month as a guest of Virtuoso for the annual Virtuoso Travel Week, recognised as the “Fashion Week of Travel”. Stay tuned for exclusively coverage from the floor of the multi-day luxury travel focused conference.
