“Angie has the perfect blend of deep roots in Asia, a great personality and strong international journalism experience,” said Paul Yurisich, head of news and programming for Bloomberg TV Asia, in a statement. “She will bring a seasoned reporter’s perspective to our First Up viewers as we set the agenda ahead of the trading day and the events shaping business in Asia.”
