Technology and Gaming Journalist - Techly
Techly is a website under the umbrella of Conversant Media. The site covers all things technology, including mobile, mobile applications, technology and gaming news.
After making contact with then editor Tristan Raynor, we established a plan to bring contemporary and future tech news to the site, as well as cover video game topics. Techly gave me the opportunity to represent their brand at events such as the launch of Ready At Dawn’s ‘The Order: 1886′, Sony’s 20th Anniversary Event, EB Expo and EA journalist review events. Some of the content I produced included Gamely, a weekly video game/tech news wrap-up, video game previews and reviews, future tech news, event coverage, and a monthly game release feature.
The following are stories I have produced for Techly.com.au
