Email: georgia.fearn@nyu.edu

I’m the business editorial intern on Observer’s business desk, covering markets, regulation, and corporate power.

I’m an NYU Business & Economic Reporting (BER) M.A. student and recipient of the Marjorie Deane Financial Journalism Fellowship, as well as a Cambridge Law graduate. Before journalism, I worked in litigation and commercial law, experience I now use to read filings, statutes, contracts, and enforcement actions quickly and accurately on deadline.

My reporting interests sit where money meets rules: platform liability, biometric ID, policing tech, consumer data, and the economics of regulation. I’m especially strong on document-driven reporting (FOIA/public records, case law, regulatory filings) and making complex systems legible without dumbing them down.
