Hello, I’m a Vice President of commerce at Dotdash Meredith, where I oversee the commerce teams on our food, travel and pet brands which include Serious Eats, Food & Wine, Travel+Leisure, Allrecipes, EatingWell and Spruce Pets.
Previous to joining Dotdash, I was a science and technology journalist and editor with over 25 years of experience.
My roles include being the Editorial Director of Allconnect, a Red Ventures company. There, I set up an SEO driven newsroom built from the ground up to drive both evergreen, educational and thought leadership traffic to the site.
Previous to that, for seven years I was the Science and Technology Editor of Dailymail.com, the world’s biggest newspaper website. I led both the London and New York newsrooms, with responsibility for managing science and tech coverage. I also spearheaded the birth of branded content for Dailymail.com and helped mentor young journalists on the Mail’s trainee scheme.
I’ve also worked as a freelance journalist in San Francisco, where I wrote for publications ranging from Wired, The Telegraph and Pocket Lint to T3 and Stuff. I secured exclusive interviews with industry leaders such as Sir Jonathan Ive at Apple and Amit Singhal, then Google’s head of search.
I’ve been on staff as a Science and Technology editor and reporter at The Sunday Times and London Evening Standard.
Originally from Wales, I currently live in upstate New York with my wife and dog.
