Once a Luddite, I now cover a little bit of tech and a lot of the personality-based stuff on Fast Company. My writing career has taken me all around the houses over the past decade and a half--from grumpy teens and hungover rock bands in the UK, thru' plasticized celebrities, health and fashion stuff in Europe. I'm happiest when I'm seeking out the weird and the whimsical, as well as the innovative and the incredible, from my home office in London.
