Dear Friends,
Today was my last day at The Wall Street Journal. It has been a true honor to work with such talented journalists. I’ll miss you dearly. It was a dream come true to work here. Thanks to everyone who helped me along the way, from the Daily Bankruptcy Review to Newswires to the last decade in WSJ’s Washington bureau.
I’d love to stay in touch with you.
