Her last day at CNBC was Wednesday and her first day at Law Times is Monday.

In a note to her CNBC colleagues, Balakrishnan wrote, “I feel I’ve grown immensely in both a personal and professional capacity during my time here. For fear of sounding cliche, there will always be a special place in my mind and heart for my first reporting job here.”
