Professional Experience
As a former fashion and style reporter at Forbes I was responsible for writing fashion, retail industry and trend related articles and slide shows for the Web site and magazine. Prior to Forbes, I was a financial reporter at Women's Wear Daily covering quarterly earnings of apparel companies, economic trends and outlooks, mergers and acquistions, management and board changes, factoring and company restructures. I also have experience writing about commercial real estate and mall development, as well as some legal reporting background.
