About Aimee

I’m a business reporter with CBS MoneyWatch and a former reporter for Bloomberg News. Before joining CBS, I freelanced for more than a decade, with my work appearing publications including USA Today, Consumer Reports, The Boston Globe and MSN Money.

I focus on stories at the intersection of the economy and everyday life, with a particular emphasis on income and wealth inequality, aging and retirement as well as financial security.

I also write science fiction and fantasy short stories. My fiction has appeared in Podcastle, Fireside, Flash Fiction Online and Daily Science Fiction, among other publications. I'm a graduate of Viable Paradise, member of the writing group Codex and a full member of the Science Fiction & Fantasy Writers of America.

In 2021, my short story “Advanced Word Problems in Portal Math” was a finalist for the Nebula award.

I'm also a recovering classical musician. I graduated from Juilliard Pre-College and The Eastman School of Music (University of Rochester), where I played the viola. I love a good viola joke, but I'll warn you: I've heard them all.
