Matt Nash and Jeremy Arbid to Executive

He’s covered everything from oil and gas to questionable flight patterns. And everyone from politicians to his dog. He broke the story on local internet providers tracking their users’ every click. And explained why buildings in Beirut are collapsing.

Today Executive welcomes Matt Nash to our family. Matt will be heading up our Economics & Policy section, both writing and helping direct our coverage of the Lebanese government and economy. This work will build on his seven-plus years of reporting on Lebanon for NOW and other outlets.

Starting next month, Matt will be joined by energy and public affairs analyst Jeremy Arbid. Jeremy — who in his short career has already penned several policy papers for leading research institutions — will apply his incisive mind and considerable knowledge of Lebanese public policy to our coverage.

As Executive’s editors, we’re extremely excited at the prospects these two journalists bring. With Matt and Jeremy joining our talented team, the sky is the limit. Readers, stay tuned.
