I spent four years on the financial breaking news desk where I produced quick-turn stories on a variety of breaking business news, from companies’ earnings, mergers and acquisitions and other corporate announcements. I also covered financial markets, labor unions and regional banks. During my last year at WSJ, I helped launch the speed and trending desk, a broader breaking news desk that covered a more expansive range of daily news, all while I continued to produce feature stories on the side.
