Or you just saw my Bernie meme.
I take a look to explain topics you may encounter in the news but don’t fully understand, such as NFT and meme actions. I had the thrill to talk about the generation with Jeff Goldblum, Ang Lee and other celebrities who brought a different perspective. I pay close attention to writing gift guides and I am moved by the notes I get from others who have used them to decide on gifts that have been well obtained. While I love being able to write about the tech industry, check out every day, it’s affected by gender, racial, and socioeconomic inequalities and I try to shine a light on those issues.
Outside of PCMag, I write fiction, poetry, humor, and essays about culture.
