Minneapolis/St. Paul Biz Journal hires Schubert as a reporter

Keith Schubert

The Minneapolis/St. Paul Business Journal has hired Keith Schubert to cover banking and finance, professional services, legal news, and sports business with an emphasis on the business of golf.

Here is an excerpt from a Q&A with Schubert:

What generated your interest in working for the Minneapolis/St. Paul Business Journal?

As a journalist, I am always seeking opportunities to learn and grow. So, I saw the Business Journal as a natural fit for me to take on a new challenge and expand my knowledge base. Plus, you don’t often see the word “golf” in journalism job descriptions, so that definitely piqued my interest.

What are you looking forward to the most about covering your beats?

My favorite part of journalism is getting to meet new and interesting people, so I am very much looking forward to getting to know the people who drive the financial and banking industries and sports business world in the Twin Cities and beyond.
