As the CEO of The Atlantic, I lead one of the most influential and respected media organizations in the world, with a history of more than 160 years of excellence in journalism, culture, and innovation. I joined The Atlantic in 2021, after serving as the Editor in Chief of Wired for four years, where I oversaw the editorial vision, strategy, and operations of the award-winning magazine and website.

I'm also a co-founder of SpeakEasy AI, a project that aims to create an online platform for positive conversations, using artificial intelligence and natural language processing. I believe that technology can be a force for good, and that we need more spaces for civil and constructive dialogue in the digital age. Additionally, I'm a keynote speaker and moderator at The Lavin Agency, where I frequently speak at events or moderate conversations about the future of technology and how it is changing our lives and world. I have more than 20 years of experience in editing, writing, and publishing, and I'm the author of The Hawk and the Dove, a book about the history of the Cold War. I'm passionate about books, marathons, and acoustic guitar.
