Hi, I'm Dylan.
You’ve got a story. I help you find it, refine it, and tell it to the world.
A writer, editor, strategist, and coach, I have a deep background in technology journalism (including leadership roles at WIRED and VentureBeat) and a track record of discovering and crafting stories for people and for tech companies. This is my personal website, my idea board, and my professional newsletter — rough edges and all.
