Senior Reporter

SHORT BIO

Meghan McCarty Carino is a senior reporter at Marketplace headquarters in Los Angeles. She’s also a fill-in host on “Marketplace Tech.”

Since 2019, Meghan has covered workplace culture, from #MeToo to pandemic remote work, the movement for racial justice and the artificial intelligence boom.

In her free time she can often be found obsessing over pizza dough, cocktail experiments or her latest food and drink fixation. She tracks her favorite international sunscreens in a Google doc – just ask.

Meghan previously reported, hosted and produced for Los Angeles station KPCC/LAist, and got her start as an intern at KQED in San Francisco. Her work has won a National Headliner Award, Online Journalism Award, Edward R. Murrow Award, LA Press Club Award and has been featured by Poynter, Nieman Journalism Lab and the Center for Public Integrity.
