I am Kyla Scanlon. I am an author, economic commentator, and educator focused on making sense of how people experience the economy. I am the founder of Bread, a financial education company that uses storytelling, humor, and analysis to explain markets and policy to millions across platforms. My work has been featured in The New York Times, The Atlantic, The Financial Times, Bloomberg, and many other outlets.

I’m the bestselling author of In This Economy? (you can order it here – if you want a signed copy, you can order that here!) and write a weekly Substack newsletter. I have spoken at institutions including Harvard, MIT, Stanford, and the Federal Reserve, and my some of my current projects include a forthcoming video series and curriculum that reimagine how economics is taught and understood.
