Sheryl Jean, a reporter on the Dallas Morning News business desk, is leaving the paper at the end of the year.
My last day will be Jan. 1, 2016. I’m moving to northern California to start a new chapter in my life. I hope to continue writing/editing as a freelancer, but I’ll also explore other work opportunities. I’ll also travel more and hope to do some travel writing, which I have dabbled in over the years.
Jean has been with the Morning News since January 2008. She has covered the ups and downs of the economy in Dallas-Fort Worth, the nation’s fourth-largest metro area, and Texas. She also writes about Texas Instruments Inc., airlines and the aviation industry.
Jean also spent seven years as a business reporter for the St. Paul Pioneer Press, where she wrote about airlines, including Northwest Airlines’ bankruptcy reorganization and consumer air travel; financial services; and emerging dot.com companies.
Before that, Jean spent two years as a business reporter for The State in Columbia, S.C. She is a graduate of the University of Massachusetts.
