About Laurel Wamsley

My career has bridged journalism and technology, giving me valuable experience in fast-moving environments that require creativity, taste, and quick decision-making.As NPR\'s personal finance correspondent, I explained complex economic topics and unpacked why they matter to all of us. I covered the housing market, real estate, and breaking news - uncovering challenges, trends and resonant voices.I\'ve worked with startups and large technology companies to elevate their customer and developer storytelling, and guided all manner of communications, from blogs and case studies to podcasts, video series and events, to executive communications and product marketing.Now, as Cloudflare\'s Editor-in-Chief, I bring all of this together.
