About Me

I’m a freelance writer and researcher who specializes in making investing and trading topics simple, clear, and practical. I’m also a financial columnist for MarketWatch, where I help readers make sense of the markets with easy-to-understand insights, analysis, and interviews.

I am widely recognized for my in-depth interviews with legendary traders and investors including Peter Lynch, John Bogle, William O'Neil, Linda Raschke, Jim Rogers, Mark D. Cook, Richard Arms, Tom McClellan, Larry Williams, Toni Turner, Gerald Appel, Mark Minervini, and Robert Kiyosaki, among others.

Before I became a full-time writer, I was a teacher—so breaking down complex financial topics for readers of all ages is something I do well. Whether it’s explaining stocks, options, or long-term investment strategies, I aim to make the information engaging and easy to follow.

Over the years, I’ve been interviewed on dozens of national radio shows and featured on financial news programs such as CNBC and ABC’s World News Now to talk about my books and market insights.

Experience

In addition to writing columns and books, I’ve created educational articles, blogs, white papers, research reports, scripts, press releases, and curriculum—often as a ghostwriter—for some of the world’s leading financial firms. I also use HTML and Adobe Illustrator to design and publish both print and digital books.

Best-Selling Books

I’ve written 10 nonfiction books on investing and finance, including two bestsellers:

·       Understanding Options

·      Understanding Stocks

Each has sold over 100,000 copies and has been translated into 13 languages. In addition, my book, "Help Your Child Build Wealth" (Wiley), is available now. I’ve also recently published "How to Sell Covered Calls," an easy-to-understand book about selling covered calls. 

Accepting Very Few Projects

Currently, I work as a ghostwriter for a very successful financial firm. While my schedule is full, I occasionally take on select short-term writing assignments. If you'd like to inquire about availability, feel free to contact me via the email address below.

Personal

When I'm not writing, I'm spending time with my family, riding one of my e-bikes, or traveling. Although I love dogs, I have an indoor-outdoor cat, Lizzie, who I rescued in 2022.
