Welcome! I am a freelance writer whose work primarily covers technology. My current project is TheAppPlanet, a site I founded to bring in-depth news and reviews to the expanding world of mobile, web and desktop apps. Connect via Twitter, Facebook and RSS.

Along with TheAppPlanet I am also a regular contributor to HealthyCal.org, a site devoted to health and environmental policy in California. For clips to these and other articles in my writing platform, please visit the portfolio page.

For those who want to get in touch, the best way is through e-mail: derek[at]theappplanet.com.
