Regan was nominated for a Best Documentary Emmy Award while also earning a Gerald Loeb nomination for her documentary work on "Against the Tide: The Battle for New Orleans" – an investigative piece on the New Orleans levee system, after Hurricane Katrina. Regan covered a series of global economic stories for CNBC and NBC News including the U.S. banking panic of 2007-2008 and the subsequent recession of 2009.
