Rick Morgan
The Puget Sound Business Journal has hired Rick Morgan to cover tech, finance and transportation.
Morgan writes, “Seattle has been my home since last May when I started covering financial technology for a trade publication called Bank Innovation. I wrote about topics like Wells Fargo’s use of blockchain, Visa’s attempted acquisition of Plaid, and a tiny bank in Georgia that is using new tech to push back against large competitors.
“My career has been a mixture of local news and business reporting.
“Before Bank Innovation, I spent a year on the breaking news desk at CBS4/FOX59, a joint news station in Indianapolis that has an excellent team of seasoned journalists. You learn a lot about news coverage when you’re frantically divvying up reporters and photographers to multiple breaking stories all over town while simultaneously writing web content.
“Before CBS4/FOX59, I interned at CNBC for both its news desk and web department. CNBC taught me that business reporting can be fun, and I was lucky to have editors that let me tackle topics like lab-grown meat and consumer goods made from recycled trash.”
