Washington Post business editor Lori Montgomery, deputy business editor Christina Passariello and technology industry editor Laura Stevens sent out the following on Monday:
Trisha previously spent two years on the business desk, where she covered work-based immigration and broke several stories on the Trump administration’s crackdown on H-1B visas. She traveled to Hyderabad, India, for a story centered on a temple where people prayed for an opportunity to work in the United States.
A New Jersey native, Trisha graduated from Boston University with a degree in journalism. Since moving to San Francisco six years ago, she has completely adopted the West Coast lifestyle — spending much of her winters skiing and summers hiking, biking and camping. She has run three marathons and is training for her fourth. Trisha also spent a year moonlighting as a bartender in San Francisco’s Mission District, where her signature cocktail was called “The Local News.”
Please join us in welcoming Trisha, whose first day is June 5.
