About

Amy brings to ImpactAlpha deep and varied journalistic experience. She was an editor at Business Week covering technology and Silicon Valley, and a longtime contributor to The New York Times, writing on topics spanning business, food and wine. She is the author of "Locavesting," a pivotal book that, in the aftermath of the 2008 financial crisis, identified the investment shift toward locally owned enterprises that can deliver enormous economic and social benefits. Nobel laureate Joseph Stiglitz called it 'an inspiring look at what local businesses can achieve.' As editorial director at ImpactAlpha, Amy helps guide strategy and leads ImpactAlpha's climate, LP/GP and AI coverage.
