Lena Muhtadi Borrelli brings over 20 years of varied experience in finance to her role as a writer. Her career began at Morgan Stanley as an intern, where she rapidly progressed from handling phone calls to supporting the Branch Manager and top financial advisors. This early exposure provided her with a deep understanding of investment strategies and principles.

Shifting to media, Lena followed her passion for writing, leveraging her finance expertise to educate and guide others. She has written for prominent publications including Forbes, TIME, Newsweek, Bankrate, Investopedia, Insurance.com and InvestorPlace. Lena has a knack for breaking down complex financial concepts, making them understandable and engaging for a broad audience.

Coming from a family with a strong finance background—her two aunts and brother are all in investing—Lena delights in making finance accessible to others. When not working, she enjoys the Florida sunshine with her husband and two cherished dogs.
