Welcome to my personal website. I'm an assistant managing editor at Money magazine, where I first began working as reporter in 1997. In addition to my editing, I wrote a monthly column for a couple of years and still contribute the occasional feature to Money and other Time Inc. publications. On this page, you'll find links to those stories.From 2001 through most of 2002, I was a senior writer covering business and economics from London for the European edition of Time. Prior to becoming a journalist, I was an analyst at Morningstar, the mutual-funds research service in Chicago. I grew up in that neck of the woods, in Aurora, and went to college downstate at Illinois. I think of myself as an incurable, bred-in-the-bone Midwesterner. Naturally, I live in Brooklyn.
