Meghan McCarty Carino is a workplace culture reporter for Marketplace.

Before joining Marketplace in 2019, Meghan was a reporter and guest host at KPCC in Los Angeles, where she covered transportation for four years. She previously worked as a producer, editor and special projects reporter on KPCC’s "Take Two" and "The Madeleine Brand Show".

Prior to discovering her passion for non-fiction storytelling, Meghan hoped to follow her love of cinema into the film business. After fetching a few too many coffees for toxic bosses, she decided to go to journalism school.

Meghan studied English at UCLA and got her master’s in journalism from the University of Southern California. Originally from the San Francisco Bay Area, Meghan has now lived the majority of her life in Los Angeles, with short stints in South Korea and South Africa.
