I edit the Businessweek Daily newsletter at Bloomberg; resident of Queens; alumna, American U; fan of the Tampa Bay Rays (really). I don't run anymore, but I still bake and use punctuation.

2025’s reading list is the shortest since I started keeping track, but also “Path Btw the Seas” was 700 pages. Faves: “Bee Sting, “God of the Woods.” Disappointing: “Twist,” “Here One Moment.”
