My Experience
I've been covering the tech industry, with a focus on cybersecurity and AI, since 2021. While most of my work has been on the reporting side, I have also written product reviews, how-to guides, and articles on consumer cybersecurity technology. In addition to PCMag, my work has been published at WIRED, eWeek, Little Village Magazine, IT Business Edge, eSecurity Planet, and FinTech Futures.
My Areas of Expertise
I primarily cover cybersecurity and AI, focusing on Windows and Android, although I also have experience with macOS, iOS, and Linux. I also cover video games and the communities built within or around them.
The Tech I Use
Most of my work is done on an Acer laptop, though I also use my Samsung Galaxy phone from time to time. On the gaming side of things, I have a PS5 and a Switch.
