I am an award-winning journalist and content producer, writing mostly about personal finance, parenting, and careers. Prior to going freelance, I spent seven years covering personal finance on staff, first as a senior reporter and social media editor at MONEY magazine and then as the Life + Money editor for The Fiscal Times. I have also worked as a daily newspaper reporter and as a trade magazine editor. In addition to personal finance, I have covered small business, luxury goods, government, and education.
