How I think about writing for this industry…

“I cover money the way people experience it, as decisions that follow you into retirement, into your portfolio, into whether pension fund still exists when you need it. I'm drawn to stories where regulation, risk, and real households collide, because that's where they usually stop being abstract and start feeling real”
