(Pocket-lint) - Max joined Pocket-lint after a fruitful spell writing about wearable and smart home tech for Wareable and The Ambient as a magazine journalism graduate from City, University of London.
That master’s course followed a few years in the mixer doing marketing and PR after an undergraduate degree from Oxford University. Max is an avid gamer, but writes about whatever is newsworthy, and works across buyer’s guides, features, news and more for the site.
He’s also contributed to Kotaku UK, The Sunday Times, the Press Association and MUNDIAL. When he’s not working, his time is divided worryingly evenly between football, culture and sleeping.
