What was your first job as a journalist?
Interviewing a restaurant owner in Lithuania for his advice on the best restaurants to visit (apart from his own!)
Have you ever used a typewriter?
Yes, I own one.
Why did you become a journalist?
I love to write, I have an insatiable curiosity, and research is my middle name (not really).
Aside from your own, what's your favorite publication to read?
I love reading Wired, the New York Times, and Ars Technica.
What's the most common misperception about your beat?
That we can't keep a secret. I'm excellent at keeping something to myself, if asked to.
