I am a senior editor at Bloomberg in New York, tasked with elevating its CFO coverage. I am also the host of Bloomberg’s CFO Briefing.
Prior to that, I managed Bloomberg’s coverage of U.S. investment-grade bonds and loans, structured finance, ESG and Latin American & Canadian credit markets and served as a Bureau Chief at the Wall Street Journal.
Before my time with the Wall Street Journal in New York and London, I worked as a U.K. Business and Finance Correspondent for German media group Welt in London and as a reporter in Shanghai.
