Cindy Lloyd joins Homes Magazine and Condo Life as well, as executive vice president of sales and associate publisher. She also comes from the Toronto Star where she worked 26 years in the ad department, most recently as advertising sales manager for Major Retail-Home and New Homes and Condos.

Meanwhile, Jackie Glass stepped down as decor editor at Reno & Condo to concentrate on her design firm, Jacqueline Glass and Associates. A regular guest on CityLine, Glass was part of the "all-star lineup" of well-known design and decor experts that Homes Publishing appointed at Reno & Decor in October.

Karen Cleveland is transitioning from St. Joseph Media, where she's been senior manager of marketing and communications for five years, to a role at ChickAdvisor as vice president of marketing and brand engagement.
