Technology Journalist
I'm a technology correspondent at The Washington Post, where I cover A.I.'s effects on the U.S. economy, work, and American institutions. Previously, I wrote the Tech Friend newsletter at the Post and On Tech With Shira Ovide at The New York Times — the paper's first daily technology newsletter.

Experience
Technology Correspondent
Covering a new beat on A.I.'s effects on the U.S. economy, work, and American institutions — what it means for jobs, power, and everyday life.
Writer, The Tech Friend Newsletter
I helped develop and launch an online and email newsletter guiding readers through personal technology with clarity and skepticism of tech-speak. The email edition achieved one of the Post's highest open rates.
On Tech With Shira Ovide Newsletter
I was the inaugural writer for the Times's first daily technology newsletter, combining a strong personal voice with sharp analysis and reporting on Big Tech, the digital divide, and corporate power.
U.S. Technology Columnist
I wrote three to five data-driven columns weekly on corporate strategy, the Big Tech backlash, and bursting tech bubbles. I was named a finalist for the 2019 Gerald Loeb Award in commentary.
Technology Reporter · Lead Writer, Deal Journal · Media Reporter
I reported on cloud computing's rise, the end of the Steve Ballmer era at Microsoft, Twitter's growth, and the fallout from unprofitable startups.
About
I've been a technology and business journalist for 20 years and I care about how technology and our use of it shapes the world we live in — in both seen and unseen ways.
I'm a sucker for data nerdery and in my spare time I enjoy bird watching and exploring New York City by bicycle.
