About

I'm a journalist with five years of experience writing about tech, cryptocurrency, and gaming. I have been published in VICE, Fortune, Business Insider, The Verge, Mashable, The Daily Beast, The Independent, CoinDesk, and many more. I recently spent two years as a Staff Reporter at Decrypt, where I focused my writing on the wacky world of meme coins, emerging technologies, and conversation shifting scoops. Previously, I have taken on ghostwritten thoughtleadership for industry leaders, crafted blog posts, and penned social media copy. I'm happy to offer these services, and I'm always up for a challenge.
