Q&A with Todd
How did you get into journalism?
"I got my start in journalism by covering the football team for my college newspaper. While in school, I also interned at a local TV station and at Bloomberg News. My first “real” job in journalism was at Bloomberg upon graduating from college. I covered various financial topics there and was involved in coverage of the collapse of Enron."
How do you stay up to date?
"In terms of how I stay up to date, I get a lot of analyst reports and read various research pieces from asset management firms. When it comes to traditional media, I spend a lot time consuming content from Barron’s, Bloomberg, CNBC and the Wall Street Journal."
