The Information hires English to cover Wall Street

The Information, a subscription-based website that focuses on technology news, has hired Carleton English to cover Wall Street.

She served as a financial journalist covering hedge funds and other Wall Street happenings for The New York Post for the last three years before leaving last week. Her beat included anything from the stock market, scandalous divorce settlements, cannabis companies, and more. English also worked as a reporter for TheStreet, and a special projects producer for CNBC.

Before that, English was a client associate at Laird Norton Tyee, now Laird Norton Wealth Management, from 2007-2012. Besides 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 holds a Bachelor’s degree in international affairs and economic development from George Washington University.
