San Francisco Chronicle to expand personal finance coverage with hiring of Jessica Roy as columnist

Jessica Roy is joining the San Francisco Chronicle as our personal finance and utility columnist. In this role, she will cover how to live and thrive in the Golden State.

Over the past year, we’ve seen just how impactful personal finance coverage can be for our readers. So we created this new role in the newsroom to focus on financial issues and decisions facing Californians every day and to expand our financial and consumer-oriented coverage.

Roy will write about how to build and manage wealth for readers at various life stages and income levels. She’ll cover California’s tax code, the insurance crisis, real estate, budgeting, gas versus electric, your grocery bill, your Pacific Gas and Electric Co. bill, and much more.
