NY Post hires English to cover hedge funds

The New York Post has hired Carleton English, previously of TheStreet.com, to cover hedge funds.

In an email to Talking Biz News, English said she was “very excited” about her new job.

English started at TheStreet in April 2015 as a reporter covering banking and Wall Street before joining Premium Service as a writer and analyst in November of the same year.

Previously she was a producer at CNBC, where she also wrote about economic issues for CNBC.com. Before that, English was a client associate at Laird Norton Wealth Management in Seattle. In addition to working with high-net-worth families on all aspects of their financial planning — investment strategy, tax-planning and estate planning — she also led financial literacy seminars for clients and young adults in the Seattle area.

English earned a BA in international affairs and economic development from George Washington University.
