Kirsten Grind
Kirsten Grind is a finance journalist at The Wall Street Journal, originally from the West Coast.
Her passion for the outdoors includes running, biking, hiking, and backpacking, with a particular fondness for the ocean and Swami's beach in Cardiff, California.
Grind's career in newspaper journalism has focused on various business topics, eventually specializing in finance.
An avid reader since childhood, her father once worried about her excessive reading habits.
Despite now living in New York City, Grind maintains a strong connection to her West Coast roots, which likely influenced her interest in Washington Mutual's story.
