This blog is a portfolio-in-progress of my writing for the web. I am currently a reporter-researcher for SmartMoney, the personal finance magazine of The Wall Street Journal. When I'm not working, I love watching Law & Order SVU, rooting for the New York Yankees, cooking gluten-free meals, and training for the 2010 ING New York City Marathon.

My complete résumé is available through LinkedIn, you can follow me on Twitter @germanotes and you can contact me at scgermano [at] gmail [dot] com.
