About Me

I work full-time as a ghostwriter and researcher for a highly successful financial company. I’m also a columnist for MarketWatch, where my twice-monthly interviews with financial experts help readers make sense of the market, uncover investment opportunities, and stay ahead of emerging trends. My columns regularly attract more than 100,000 views.

I've conducted indepth interviews with some of the most influential figures in trading, investing, and personal finance including legendary investors Peter Lynch and John Bogle; acclaimed traders William O’Neil, Linda Raschke, Mark Minervini, Larry Williams, Mark D. Cook, Richard Arms, Tom McClellan, and Gerald Appel; and renowned personal finance experts Suze Orman 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 compelling and easy to follow.

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

Experience

As a freelance writer, 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.

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.

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.
