Challenge

Under relentless deadlines, keep producing investigative stories that are both exclusive and bulletproof — across macroeconomics, FX, central-bank policy and financial-institution results.

Approach

NEXT Digital (2012–2019): Assistant Manager & Senior Reporter — exclusive investigative reporting on economic, financial and social issues.

Commercial Times (2009–2012): covered the FSC, Central Bank, FX & bond markets, fintech, banking and insurance.

Berich Media (2007–2009): covered securities and commodities; planned cover stories and reader-focused financial guides.

Results

  • Routinely surpassed 500K clicks per story — 125× the desk average.
  • Broke repeatedly market-moving exclusives.
  • The reporter's training underpins everything since: find the point, verify it, say it plainly.
