About the stock bloggers: Anne Metz

anne metzWe've asked each of our bloggers to introduce themselves and talk a little about why they love the market and what positions they call their own. We encourage our bloggers to own common stock and abide by a common code of conduct.

Who are you, and why are you passionate about stocks?
I live in Charlottesville, Virginia.

I have degrees from the University of Virginia. My academic specialty was economic theory and phenomenology. At least the theory side explains part of my interest in the market.

Before my writing career, I worked as a print and runway model here in the U.S. and in Milan. I’ve also run a non-profit construction company. I’ve picked tomatoes on an organic farm. And I’ve delivered mail. Lots and lots of mail. 

Currently, I’m a  writer for Live Investment News, a personal finance and investing website geared towards the average invididual investor.  I’m also a principal of Proofrock Copy, a freelance copywriting company. In my free time, I write fiction and carry on in a rather cheeky blog called The Cool Honey.
