- Hope spent much of her career working in television news production.
- She also spent much of that time being a single mother, and learning that "having it all" comes at a cost.
- The best part of her life was spent raising a son who knows how to respect women and a daughter who doesn't view gender as a barrier to great things.
Experience
Hope spent years in television, working for NBC Asia, CNN International, and Bloomberg TV with a focus on international politics and business. Her interest in viewing events through a woman's perspective came in handy when she began working at The List. Hope currently spends her time keeping up with current affairs and indulging in her other passion, reading about food.
