Editor-in-Chief, PCMag / VP of Content, Ziff Davis
Wendy Sheehan Donnell

I'm the Editor-in-Chief of PCMag.com and the Vice President of Content for Ziff Davis, overseeing the editorial operations of PCMag and ExtremeTech.com, steering reviews and product coverage, news and features, and service journalism across the sites.

Back when the first iPhone was released, I started at PCMag as a senior editor covering consumer electronics and mobile reviews. After that, I went on to head up the reviews team as executive editor. And most recently I served as deputy editor, managing PCMag's editorial team and day-to-day operations. I've covered more product releases and have edited more reviews, roundups, and buying guides than any human reasonably should, each and every one contributing to the noble pursuit of helping you find the right technology to fit your life.

Before joining PCMag, I was the managing editor of Computer Shopper. I earned my master's degree in magazine journalism from New York University. (Nope, the irony of witnessing the deaths of both of the print magazines I've managed is not lost on me.)

Though I rarely have the opportunity to write these days, I still crave the rush that comes from crafting the perfect headline and enjoy nothing more than a spirited AP Style debate.
