I am a San Francisco-based writer covering enterprise, education technology, health IT, and venture capital.

Prior to VentureBeat, I worked in public relations representing companies in the Big Data, cloud computing and analytics space. Before that, I worked as a freelance writer for the San Francisco Chronicle, TheNextWeb and Digital Trends, among others. In 2011, I received a Masters from the Stanford Graduate School of Journalism.

The first thing people usually notice about me is my weird accent. Growing up, I divided my time between the urban sprawls of New York and London. So when I’m not telling stories, you’ll find me embracing everything that the hippie, chilled-out California lifestyle has to offer: yoga, wine and hiking.

Disclosures: I stand behind VentureBeat’s ethics statement. Prior to VentureBeat, I worked in public relations and marketing, but do not maintain any relationships with former clients that would bias my reporting. I don’t own shares in any company in the tech sector. I don’t accept gifts with the exception of the occasional gift bag swag.
