John Schmidt
Staff Writer at Acorns
John is a Texas-born, Tennessee-raised, Missouri-educated, New York-living writer constantly on the lookout for the best breakfast tacos. When he isn’t on a never-ending quest to find quality TexMex in New York City, he enjoys writing, singing and exploring the farthest reaches his Metrocard can take him.
Before joining the Grow team, John served as an editor for Corporate Insight, a market research group specializing in consumer financial services. He likes helping the up-and-coming make good money moves because it’s the closest he’ll ever get to being Cardi B.
