‘I’m a lifelong storyteller.’

What’s my story? Well, I got my first typewriter in kindergarten. Somehow Santa Claus had heard my stories of how much my classmates and I loved banging on the old-fashioned typewriter during indoor playtime. By fourth grade, I really wanted to know how to use quote marks in the little stories I wrote. My teacher said we weren’t learning that yet, so clearly I was ahead of my time.

In high school in Ohio, I went to journalism camp (nerd, I know!) and wrote for the teen page of the Dayton Daily News, my hometown newspaper. Later, I became a recurring intern and still remember the first time I saw the presses rolling and smelled the pungent ink. I went on to work in newsrooms in Lexington, Kentucky; Birmingham, Alabama; Charlotte, North Carolina and even Paris, France. For much of my reporting career I covered business news, specifically personal finance and investing.

After my journalism career and before starting By George, I worked in corporate communications for Wells Fargo, where I helped mutual fund managers and asset management executives go beyond the numbers to tell their stories.

I’m a lifelong storyteller. I’ve always loved hearing and telling other people’s stories. My team and I can’t wait to hear your stories and spread them far and wide.
