When did your interest in technology begin?
My interest in technology began when I received my first digital camera. I wouldn't have called myself a true tech enthusiast until I started writing about photography gear for PopPhoto, though.
What tech products or categories are you most passionate about?
I am obsessed with cameras and all things photography gear, along with anything fitness or outdoor-related.
