“I had the privilege of working alongside Robin for several years while we were both at The Penny Hoarder, both in her capacity as an editor and as a senior writer. As an editor, I found her to be incredibly thoughtful and thorough. She could take a draft that wasn't quite working and pinpoint exactly what it needed to bring the story together. I learned a lot from her, and I am in large part the editor I am today because of what I learned from watching how she worked with writers to make their work shine. I also had the opportunity to edit her when she transitioned to being a senior writer and Dear Penny columnist, which is how I discovered that she's not only an exceptional editor, but that she's a dream to edit. Every editor has a couple of writers they'll always remember working with because of their ability to consistently and quickly turn in clean, bright, tight copy that doesn't need much editing, and for me, Robin is one of those writers. I can't say enough positive things about working with Robin as both an editor and a writer. She is an asset to any media organization that's lucky enough to have her.”
