Debbie Carlson

I’m an experienced and versatile journalist who is comfortable writing both breezy feature profiles and complex financial stories, quickly, cleanly and on deadline. I can tell a tale in 300 or 3,000 words and create a sparkling story from the dullest of facts. Always curious about the world around us and what makes it move.
