Instead, Jeffrey Grubb spends his time investigating the big stories in gaming, crying over Detroit sports, and exploring his latest hometown of Denver, CO. Fun facts: He was born and grew up in Michigan. He moved to Ohio. And he does not enjoy writing about himself. I adhere to VentureBeat’s ethics policy.
