About
I've been a technology and business journalist for 20 years. I focus on how technology and our use of it shapes the world we live in — in seen and unseen ways. I have been a finalist for the Gerald Loeb award and was recognized by SABEW's Best in Business awards.
In my spare time, I enjoy bird watching and exploring New York City by bicycle.
