IN MIRANDA’S OWN WORDS …

When I started writing about money nearly two decades ago, I didn’t know much about finances beyond the basics of saving and spending. Today, I have a robust investment portfolio and help students navigate their college funding options. I present workshops and host retreats designed to bring people closer to their money. It’s a great honor to be part of the financial education process for people of all ages and backgrounds. I’m glad the things I’ve learned and been able to share have helped others make money choices that work for them.
