Few reporters could pull off life-saving advice - "165, stay alive" - w/ such sartorial superiority, but Brian Vines did it. Consumer Reports

Super excited about my next chapter with SmartNews. (And trying to remember where/when this picture was taken!) Thanks to my amazing Consumer Reports colleagues for 8 powerful years of journalism together.
