About

I’m the personal finance editor at MarketWatch, where I guide a team of reporters writing timely, engaging stories about people and their money. As a reporter at MarketWatch, I covered personal finance and wrote the Financial Face-off column, which helped readers navigate financial choices. I also wrote stories examining philanthropy and other instances where money is deployed as an expression of our values. This ranged from billionaires who think they can save humanity to people donating their change at the grocery store checkout. Previously I worked as a local newspaper reporter in California’s Great Central Valley and as a local news reporter at DNAinfo New York.
