I know it's cliché, but I believe in the power of stories. That's why I'm a journalist. Blood, dirty politics, police overtime pay scandals – I've covered them all, and I know how powerful those stories can be in shaping a community.

But business, more than anything else, shapes communities. That's what drew me to the Memphis Business Journal in Memphis, Tenn., where I cover everything related to real estate, retail and manufacturing.
