Masterclass: Making Sense of a Challenging Financial Market

Carleton English is a reporter at Barron's, where she covers banking, activist investing, and markets. In addition to her writing for Barron's magazine, Carleton is also a panelist on the Barron's Roundtable, which airs weekly on Fox Business. Prior to joining Barron's, Carleton covered hedge funds and other Wall Street shenanigans for The New York Post, was a writer at TheStreet.com and a producer at CNBC.

Before journalism, Carleton spent the first part of her career in finance, first working as a credit and pricing analyst with LEAF Financial in her native Philadelphia. Three thousand miles later, she found her passion for financial education when she started working for Laird Norton Tyee in Seattle (now Laird Norton Wealth Management) as a Client Service Associate. In addition to assisting high-net worth families with their financial planning needs, Carleton also developed a financial literacy curriculum for Laird Norton clients that was also used in Seattle public schools.

Carleton is a graduate of George Washington University, where she studied International Relations and Anthropology. She spent a semester in Buenos Aires, where her love affair with Latin American literature and tango dancing began. When not working, Carleton can be found dancing or taking in a Broadway show.
