Hi! I'm Tom Brant. I love distilling complex technical topics into engaging stories, videos, and other content that anyone can enjoy.

​

Reading this on a weekday? Then you've caught me testing and reviewing laptops, desktop PCs, and tons of other personal tech for PCMag.com. (It's so fun I do it a lot on weekends, too).

 

I previously covered the consumer tech beat as a news reporter for PCMag in San Francisco. I've appeared on CBS News, USA Today, and many other outlets to offer analysis on breaking technology news.  I also write on topics as diverse as Borneo's rain forests, Middle Eastern airlines, and big data's role in presidential elections for a variety of publications.

 

I graduated from Middlebury College in 2010 with a B.A. in economics and political science, and also hold an M.A. in journalism from New York University.
