Living life as a single mother and struggling for years to make ends meet inspired Mia to more deeply educate herself about personal finance topics. As a journalist, she had the perfect platform to reach out to nationally renowned money experts and begin asking questions. This led her on a journey of expanding her knowledge and writing about all things money related, whether its mortgages, personal loans, credit cards, budgeting, investing, student loans, wealth building, or debt management.
As her experience in this arena grew she developed a parallel career writing about personal finance for some of the nation’s most well-known financial news and information websites and even serving as a single-mom personal finance expert for a national bank. She has contributed to Fortune, Bankrate, TheStreet, Credit.com, TheSimpleDollar, Cheapism, and Policygenius. Her work has also appeared on MSN Money, Yahoo Finance, and Inc.
