Managing Editor, Consumer Electronics

My Experience

I’m PCMag’s managing editor for consumer electronics content, overseeing an experienced team of reviewers and product testers. I’ve been covering tech for more than 22 years. Prior to PCMag, I worked at outlets such as Android Authority, Fortune, InformationWeek, and Phonescoop. 

My Areas of Expertise

  • I’ve written thousands of product reviews of cell phones, Chromebooks, headphones, laptops, security cameras, smartwatches, smart speakers, tablets, and myriad other consumer products. 

  • I’ve spent years editing a variety of tech content, including reviews, columns, in-depth features, and much more. 

The Technology I Use

My main tool for getting work done is a 14-inch MacBook Pro. It’s a silent and fast machine with a good keyboard and excellent battery life. When I’m not using my laptop, you can find me working (and relaxing) with an iPad Pro. I’ve come to rely on its 5G data connection when traveling, which makes it an essential part of my workflow. 

I consider myself an audiophile. That means my office and living room audio setups are total overkill, featuring Denon receivers, a turntable, and Polk Audio speakers complete with subwoofers for the best possible sound whether I’m listening to music or watching movies. My favorite headphones for rocking out privately are the Sony WF-1000XM5.

When on the go I typically use an iPhone 15 Pro Max for photos, but I don’t need much of an excuse to pull out my Sony mirrorless for high-resolution photography—especially when shooting sports.
