Have you ever used a typewriter?
Yes. Have you ever used a Corona Typewriter made in 1934? Great actions, vibrant color, and near silent.

Raoul Duke. That guy knew how to party.
What's your favorite social network?
Instagram. My strength is visual storytelling.
What's the worst pitch you ever got?
This one guy catches me at networking events and he pitches me another Kickstarter. They're all terrible. I nicknamed him "Human Spam".

Coffee with a dab of milk. Not a lot, just enough to get through the next deadline.

At an event. I've attended over 2,500 events including conferences, punk shows, product releases, galas, soirees, and everything in between.

The New York Times- They are a journalistic standard to judge an work against and a hope, you're lucky, to surpass.
What's the most common misperception about your beat?
I don't care about the stats. I care about the human stories behind taking the product or startup to production.
