My Experience

I’ve been writing and editing technology content for over five years, most recently as part of PCMag's consumer electronics team, though I also spent several years on the software team. Before PCMag, I worked at Neowin.net, Tom’s Guide, and Laptop Mag. I spend too much of my free time reading forums and blogs about audio and photography.

The Technology I Use

I use a Lenovo ThinkPad P14s for work and a 2021 Razer Blade 14 for everything else. I also keep a Lenovo Yoga Tab, a first-generation Surface Book, and a Toshiba Chromebook 2 at home. My current phone is a Google Pixel 6a.

As for software, I use Firefox everywhere I can (including Firefox Focus on mobile), as well as Mullvad VPN and Bitwarden. I rely on Adobe Lightroom to edit photos and Microsoft Excel to manage the rest of my life.

I’m currently split between wired and wireless headphones. I use a Fiio K3 amp/DAC for the Beyerdynamic DT 700 Pro X headphones and Moondrop Kato earphones. For wireless audio, I switch between the Sony LinkBuds S and the Sony WH-1000XM3 headphones.

My current camera is a Nikon D500.
