Lend an ear to this thoughtful and worldly journalist who shares her thoughts on:
How the business and economic affairs-focused Financial Times is London-based, yet reaches a global audience through about 700 journalists in 40 countries.
How FT Weekend revels in long-form storytelling about arts, culture, luxury, food, travel and restaurants and how the print edition often drives podcast episodes.
Why she always looks at the big picture and how what interests her always fits into a broader story, or question or trend that impacts listeners and readers around the world.
How her FT Weekend Podcast episodes always take listeners on a trip, teach them something new, make them think and consider how they lived their lives.
Why she thinks industry notables, like Alice Waters, Shannon Mustipher, the Migrant Kitchen team and Overthrow Hospitality’s Ravi DeRossi, are moving hospitality forward.
