Aimee Keane of the Financial Times has left the news operation.
Keane is joining with former colleague Cardiff Garcia to start an audio production company.
“We’ll have a show a little like the one we used to make together, and we have some ideas that will sound completely new,” she wrote on Twitter. “We’ll also be taking on work as audio consultants, producers, editors and financial journalists for hire.”
At the FT, she has been acting head of audio and coordinated all American-based podcasting operations, including the FT’s fast-growing program “Alphachat,” which won the Digital Audio category at the 2016 Excellence in Financial Journalism.
She joined the FT in London in 2015, and has reported on the health care and leisure sectors.
