"I'm excited to be joining GOBankingRates and its team of personal finance experts," said Huddleston. "It's a great source of easy-to-understand advice that anyone can use to make smart money decisions and take control of his or her finances. Hopefully, my 'Life + Money' column will be a great complement to the outstanding content GOBankingRates is already offering," she said.

Inspiration Behind "Life + Money"

Huddleston draws from her own experience as a mother of three and manager of her mother's finances to provide firsthand personal finance experience in GOBankingRates' premier "Life + Money" column.

"For this column, I will be drawing from my own experience of juggling a career and family, making money decisions as a couple, raising my children to be financially responsible, and coping with the complicated issues that come with managing the finances of a parent with dementia," Huddleston said. "Plus, I'll be tapping into my years of experience as a personal finance journalist to offer sound advice."

Huddleston's Professional Background

Huddleston comes to GOBankingRates with nearly 14 years of experience writing about personal finance. Most recently, she worked at Kiplinger, where she served as contributing editor and author of the nationally syndicated, award-winning "Kips Tips" column. In 2014, she received the award for "Best Online Column" from Media Industry Newsletter, which recognizes excellence in content and sets new benchmarks for storytelling. Previously, she covered convertible securities and junk bonds at Dow Jones Newswires. She has bachelor's degrees in journalism and Russian studies from Washington & Lee University and a master's degree in economic journalism from American University.

Huddleston's work has also appeared on Yahoo, MSN, AOL Daily Finance, and hundreds of other print and online publications.
