Lizzie Nealon is a former insurance writer for Bankrate. Her favorite part of the job is making home, auto and life insurance digestible for readers so they can prepare for the future.

Prior to joining Bankrate, Lizzie worked as a writer and media relations specialist at a public relations firm in Washington, D.C. There, she covered topics ranging from wine and cheese to personal finance.

Lizzie earned her bachelor’s degree in political science from Clemson University. At Clemson, she co-founded a campus publication called the Sensible Tiger that made news and politics digestible to college students. This experience instilled her passion for helping audiences navigate complex topics like insurance.

In her freetime, she enjoys partially completing New Yorker crosswords, finding the best local restaurants and reading biographies.

Insurance is the highest form of self-care. Protecting yourself and your family against financial ruin provides peace of mind, security and freedom.
