Jeff is UK Editor-in-Chief for Tom’s Guide looking after the day-to-day output of the site’s British contingent. Rising early and heading straight for the coffee machine, Jeff loves nothing more than dialing into the zeitgeist of the day’s tech news and poring over the latest technical details to discover the best features of the newest products. A tech journalist for over a decade, he has traveled around the world testing and reviewing any gadget he can get his hands on.
Before joining the team at Tom’s Guide, Jeff covered technology and science for two of the UK’s biggest news sites: Metro.co.uk and the Daily Mirror, producing podcasts, videos and weekly columns on all things tech. Memorable moments include getting lost in Vienna in an electric Audi, touring Lockheed Martin’s mile-long fighter jet factory in Fort Worth and filming a Netflix documentary about Elon Musk in West London.
When not plugged into the current news agenda, editing or commissioning a series of articles or debating the merits of Apple vs Android, Jeff can be found out for a run trying to shave precious seconds off his PB or lifting weights in a vain attempt to offset the ageing process.
