More recently I worked on middleware for mobile devices, consoles, and PCs at Dolby Labs.I then became Senior Mobile Editor at Engadget, where I spent 3.5 years reviewing mobile devices, covering events, conferences, and trade shows, plus writing features, podcasting, and building PR relationships.This led me to becoming Chief Evangelist at Pebble where I headed communications and go-to-market strategy, and helped launch the critically acclaimed Pebble Steel smartwatch at CES 2014.Today I'm the host of the Mobile Tech Podcast. In the past, I've written for TechRadar, HotHardware, GeekSpin, and other major publications.I also advise consumer tech companies on product and media strategy. I've worked as a consultant for companies like MediaTek, Palo Alto Networks, Sony, Samsung, OnePlus, Huawei, Honor, and Sonos. Since 2015, I've helped my clients raise over $8 million in crowdfunding and get top-tier tech coverage from The Verge, Recode, Engadget, TechCrunch, and CNET -- to name a few.Finally, I've talked at many conferences over the years (SXSW, Techcrunch Disrupt, BlogHer, Web Summit, Mobile World Congress, World Broadband Forum, CTIA, Engadget Expand, VentureBeat, Wearables TechCon, Bug Future Show, and more), and I'm available as a speaker and moderator.
