Cassandra Garrison

Cassandra Garrison, a reporter for Reuters in its Buenos Aires bureau, has moved to its Mexico City bureau.

She will be covering climate change, billionaire Carlos Slim, telecoms and technology.

Garrison joined Reuters in 2014 in New York as head of social media.

She covered major stories including the 2016 U.S. presidential election, the annual World Economic Forum in Davos and the Rio Olympics, where she raced to the airport to be the only journalist onboard a Miami-bound flight carrying two U.S. swimmers accused of lying about being robbed at gunpoint, netting exclusive video and photos for Reuters.

She began her career in television as a reporter and morning anchor for Erie, Pennsylvania’s WJET. In New York, she covered Occupy Wall Street, Hurricane Sandy and the NYPD for Metro newspaper.

Cassandra is originally from Cleveland.
