​As someone fond of technology, I'm always on the lookout for great stories about the people and companies making the innovations that impact society. Professionally, I've been a reporter at The Next Web and VentureBeat and have also covered these developments as a blogger for a variety of media outlets including Network Solutions, Bub.blicio.us, and also on my own.

Throughout my career, I've reported on Big Tech companies such as Google, Twitter, Apple, Google, and Facebook, as well as news from those in the enterprise (e.g. Salesforce and Box), platforms (e.g. Twilio), financial tech (e.g. Stripe, Square, and PayPal), accelerators (e.g. Y Combinator and 500 Startups), media, and a plethora of startups.

I have been fortunate to have interviewed notable leaders including the inventor of the internet Vint Cerf, Hawaii governor David Ige, the former U.S. Chief Data Scientist DJ Patil, Zendesk chief executive Mikkel Svane, Y Combinator co-founder Jessica Livingston, Automattic's Global Head of Design and Inclusion John Maeda, and Flipboard CEO Mike McCue.

My opinions have been aired numerous times on Cheddar and also on Digital Trends.

10 QUESTIONS

My current writing project is a weekly series in which each article features an interview with an exceptional individual sharing something about their work, answered over the course of 10 questions. These are published on Medium and LinkedIn. Participants have included:
  • Palm's co-founders
  • June CEO Matt Van Horn
  • Mentor Bureau founder Chris Heuer
  • The Verge's Silicon Valley Editor Casey Newton
  • Altimeter Group analyst Brian Solis
  • Truly, Inc. CEO and author Tara Hunt
  • Public relations specialist Marie Domingo
  • Designer John Maeda

PODCASTS: COMMENTARY AND ANALYSIS

When not producing content for publications, I am at times asked to provide commentary and analysis about the latest technology news. Previously I have appeared on programs such as Cheddar and the Mobile Tech Podcast. 

TECH BRIEFS WITH
DIGITAL TRENDS + FLIPBOARD


Flipboard formed a partnership with Digital Trends in April 2019 where I joined the digital media outlet's #DTLive show on Fridays to discuss that week's top tech news.

Articles relating to topics discussed each week were curated into a dedicated Flipboard magazine. Each episode is also featured on my YouTube channel.
