Stuart Marsh has been a journalist for a decade covering everything from economics to breaking news and men's lifestyle.

Stuart took 9Finance from the fifth most-read digital business site to the second, according to Nielsen's digital ratings. Despite being a one-man team, 9Finance once boasted more readers than The Australian Business Review, The Guardian's business section and the Herald Sun's business coverage.

Stuart currently writes for 9News.com.au, focusing on consumer, business and finance stories.
