Bio

I’m the editor of the Forbes CMO Network and also a staff writer at Forbes covering marketing, advertising and technology. Previously, I was a staff writer at Adweek where I covered the present and future of emerging technologies including virtual reality, augmented reality, and blockchain. I also wrote about agencies, brands, and the growing intersection of Silicon Valley and Washington D.C. including what it means for legislation and regulation of various parts of the tech and advertising industries. Prior to moving to New York, I was a political reporter for the Associated Press in Alabama, where I wrote about state government and other regional stories such as the removal of Confederate flags and the legalization of same-sex marriage. My journalism career has taken me to Tennessee, New York, Belgium, Missouri, Minnesota and Alabama. Story subjects, both breaking news and features, have included the following: general business, legislation, economic development, politics, tech, biotech, advertising, publicly traded companies, legal news, tax policy, banking, energy, agriculture and music.
