About Mark Hamrick

As a senior director at Red Ventures, the parent company of Bankrate.com, I leverage my experience as an economic analyst and journalist to connect the dots between the economy, politics, and personal finances. I create and analyze surveys of experts and consumers, and provide commentary and insight for various media outlets, including radio, television, and online publications. I am also passionate about advocating for press freedom, the First Amendment, financial literacy, and access to credible economic data. I have served as the president of two associations of journalists: the Society for Advancing Business Editing and Writing (SABEW) and the National Press Club (NPC). I have also been honored by a tribute video from President Barack Obama for my work as a leader and mentor in the media industry. My mission is to inform, educate, and empower people with reliable and relevant information on personal finance, business, and economics.
